Log User Activity in Your Laravel App with Activity Log v5

Laravel Activitylog v5 by Spatie has been released with PHP 8.4 and Laravel 12 as minimum requirements. Key additions include a unified HasActivity trait replacing the separate LogsActivity and CausesActivity traits, an activity buffering feature for bulk inserts (enabled via env or config), and a new defaultCauser() API. Model change tracking now uses a dedicated attribute_changes column instead of the properties JSON column. Several methods and config keys were renamed for consistency, and the batch/pipe systems were removed entirely.
