+-----------------
+
+Release Date
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+- 2017-02-03
+
+
+New Features
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+- Pull requests: introduced versioning for pull requests.
+  Each update of pull requests creates and exposes a new version of it.
+  Users can navigate each version to show the previous state of pull request, or
+  generate diffs between versions to show what changed since the last update.
+  Also on each update attached comments are pinned to versions, so users can
+  tell at which state particular comment was made.
+  Various UI/UX fixes on PR page.
+
+- Pull requests: introduced new merge-checks.
+  Merge checks show nicer UI for the status of merge approval.
+  Merge checks now also forbid a merge if TODO notes are present.
+  Submitting a status will auto-refresh merge checks, it means that it's no
+  longer required to re-load diff to merge a PR.
+  Same logic is now used for API, pre-conditions on show, and checks on
+  actual merge API call.
+
+- Code review: approval state is now bound to pull request versioning. Users
+  can track their last approval and only show changes of pull requests between
+  their last approval and latest state.
+- Code review: inline and main comments have now two types. a `note` and `todo`.
+  unresolved TODO comments show up in pull requests or commit view.
+  Unresolved TODO also prevents a PR from being merged.
+- Code review: added navigation on outdated comments.
+
+- Diffs: compare mode overhaul.
+  Made compare and commit range pages more consistent with other commit
+  diff pages. Old diff2way is replaced by new diffs with side-by-side
+  mode, and it also removes mergerly. Cleanup button behaviour on the compare
+  page. Switched file-diffs to use the  compare page with file filter.
+  Added collapse/expand commits buttons in compare views. Generally improved UX.
+- Diffs: added a wide-mode button to expand large diffs.
+
+- Comments: an overhaul of comments forms. Adjust them for new comment types and
+  resolution comments.
+- Comments: replaced a ctrl+space commands with slash commands. This becomes
+  more standardized and easier to use.
+
+- Changelog: added load more anchors into changelog view.
+  Users in changelog can now load comments via ajax and extend the data
+  set to show more than 100 commits. This also re-renders the graph. So it's
+  possible to show 1000s of commits in an efficient way with the DAG graph.
+
+- User sessions: added interface to show, and cleanup user auth sessions.
+  It's possible to show, and clean obsolete sessions. Also a cleanup of all
+  sessions option were added to completely log-out all users from the system.
+
+- Integrations: webhook integration have now additional setting to choose if
+  the call should be made with POST or GET.
+
+- API: get_repos call now allows to filter returned data by specifying a start
+  root location. Additionally, a traverse flag was added to define if returned
+  data should be only from top-level or recursive.
+- API: comment_type (`note` or `todo`) for comment API.
+- API: added comment_resolved_id into comments API to resolve TODO notes.
+
+
+General
+^^^^^^^
+
+- Api: comment_pull_request, added commit_id parameter to validate status
+  changed on particular commit. In case users set status on the commit
+  which is not current valid head this API call won't change the status anymore.
+- Channelstream: added testing panel for live notifications.
+- Authentication: disable password change form for accounts that are not
+  managed by RhodeCode, in the case of external accounts such as LDAP/oAuth,
+  password reset doesn't make sense.
+- Core: let pyramid handle tracebacks for all exceptions.
+  Otherwise, we'll miss exception caused in pure pyramid views.
+- Vcs server: expose remote tracebacks from HTTP backend using
+  the Pyro4AwareFormatter. This will now in most cases propagate VCSServer
+  exception into Enterprise logs for easier tracking of errors
+- Ishell: updated code with latest iShell changes.
+- Svn: generate HTTP downgrade via the auto-generated config. This allows
+  a HTTPs/HTTP configuration with SVN.
+- Dependencies: bumped various pytest related libraries to latest versions.
+- Dependencies: bumped gevent to 1.1.2 and greenlet to 0.4.10 versions.
+- Dependencies: bumped msgpack to version 0.4.8.
+- Dependencies: bumped supervisor to 3.3.1 version.
+- Dependencies: bumped Whoosh to version 2.7.4.
+- Dependencies: bumped Markdown library to 2.6.7
+- Dependencies: bumped mako templates to 1.0.6
+- Dependencies: bumped waitress version to 1.0.1
+- Dependencies: bumped pygments to 2.2.0
+- dependencies: bumped Mercurial version to 4.0.2
+- dependencies: bumped git version to 2.9.3
+
+
+Security
+^^^^^^^^
+
+- Login: Don't display partial password helper hash inside the logs.
+  The information is not-required and will prevent people worrying about this
+  shown in logs.
+- Auth: use pyramid HTTP exception when detecting CSRF errors. It helps
+  catching this error by our error handler and displaying it nicely to users.
+- SVN: hide password entries in logs using specially generated configuration
+  for Apache Mod-Dav
+- Permissions: fixed call to correctly check permissions for admin, before admin
+  users were ban deleting of pull requests in certain conditions.
+
+
+Performance
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+- Markup renderer: use global Markdown object to speed up markdown rendering.
+  We'll skip heavy initialization on each render thanks to this.
+- Diffs: optimize how lexer is fetched for rich highlight mode.
+  Speeds up initial diff creation significantly since lexer cache is re used
+  and we don't need to fetch lexer many times.
+- VCS: do an early detection of vcs-type request.
+  In case we're handling a VCS request, we can skip some of the pylons
+  stack initialization, speeding the request processing.
+
+
+Fixes
+^^^^^
+
+- Code review: render outdated comments that don't fit current context.
+  Comments attached to files that were removed from pull-request now will also
+  properly show up.
+- Markup renderer: don't render plaintext files as RST. This prevents plain
+  Readme files have been wrongly rendered.
+- VCS: raise a better exception if file node history cannot be extracted.
+  Helps to trace corrupted repositories.
+- Exception handling: nicer error catching on repository creation.
+- Fixed excessive number of session object creation. There should be now a
+  significant reduction in new file or DB entries created for sessions.
+- Core: remove global timezone hook from tests. This was leaking into main
+  application causing TZ problems (such as UTC log dates).
+- Pull requests: wait for all dynamic checks before enabling opening a PR.
+  This ensures that all code analysis were run before users are allowed to open
+  a pull request.
+- i18n: use a consistent way of setting user language.
+- API: added merge checks into API because it was not validated before and could
+  return an error if the merge wasn't possible for some reason.
+- VCSServer: fetch proper locale before defaulting to default. Prevents
+  errors on some machines that don't have locales set.
+- VCSServer: fixed 500 error if the wrong URL on HTTP mode vcsserver was accessed.
+
+
+Upgrade notes
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+- Integrations: since new POST/GET option was added to integrations, users
+  are advised to optionally check Webhooks integrations and pick one.
+  (default is still POST)
