+|RCE| 4.25.0 |RNS|
+------------------
+
+Release Date
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+- 2021-04-02
+
+
+New Features
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+- SSH: allow clone by ID via SSH operations.
+- Artifacts: added an admin panel to manage artifacts.
+- Redmine: added option to add note to a ticket without changing its status in Redmine integration.
+
+
+General
+^^^^^^^
+
+- Git: change lookups logic. Prioritize reference names over numerical ids.
+  Numerical ids are supported as a fallback if ref matching is unsuccessful.
+- Permissions: changed fork permission help text to reflect the actual state on how it works.
+- Permissions: flush permissions on owner changes for repo and repo groups. This
+  would fix problems when owner of repository changes then the new owner lacked permissions
+  until cache expired.
+- Artifacts: added API function to remove artifacts.
+- Archives: use a special name for non-hashed archives to fix caching issues.
+- Packaging: fixed few packages requirements for a proper builds.
+- Packaging: fix rhodecode-tools for docker builds.
+- Packaging: fixed some problem after latest setuptools-scm release.
+- Packaging: added setuptools-scm to packages for build.
+- Packaging: fix jira package for reproducible builds.
+- Packaging: fix zipp package patches.
+
+
+Security
+^^^^^^^^
+
+- Comments: forbid removal of comments by anyone except the owners.
+  Previously admins of a repository could remove them if they would construct a special url with data.
+- Pull requests: fixed some xss problems when a deleted file with special characters were commented on.
+
+
+Performance
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+- License: skip channelstream connect on license checks logic to reduce calls handling times.
+- Core: optimize some calls to skip license/scm detection on them. Each license check is expensive
+  and we don't need them on each call.
+
+
+Fixes
+^^^^^
+
+- Branch-permissions: fixed ce view. Fixes #5656
+- Feed: fix errors on feed access of empty repositories.
+- Archives: if implicit ref name was used (e.g master) to obtain archive, we now
+  redirect to explicit commit sha so we can have the proper caching for references names.
+- rcextensions: fixed pre-files extractor return code support.
+- Svn: fix subprocess problems on some of the calls for file checking.
+- Pull requests: fixed multiple repetitions of referenced tickets in pull requests summary sidebar.
+- Maintenance: fixed bad routes def
+- clone-uri: fixed the problems with key mismatch that caused errors on summary page.
+- Largefiles: added fix for downloading largefiles which had no extension in file name.
+- Compare: fix referenced commits bug.
+- Git: fix for unicode branches
+
+
+Upgrade notes
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+- Scheduled release 4.25.0.
