+Release 1.4.0
+=============
+
+New features to troubleshoot a git-multimail installation
+---------------------------------------------------------
+
+* One can now perform a basic check of git-multimail's setup by
+ running the hook with the environment variable
+ GIT_MULTIMAIL_CHECK_SETUP set to a non-empty string. See
+ doc/troubleshooting.rst for details.
+
+* A new log files system was added. See the multimailhook.logFile,
+ multimailhook.errorLogFile and multimailhook.debugLogFile variables.
+
+* git_multimail.py can now be made more verbose using
+ multimailhook.verbose.
+
+* A new option --check-ref-filter is now available to help debugging
+ the refFilter* options.
+
+Formatting emails
+-----------------
+
+* Formatting of emails was made slightly more compact, to reduce the
+ odds of having long subject lines truncated or wrapped in short list
+ of commits.
+
+* multimailhook.emailPrefix may now use the '%(repo_shortname)s'
+ placeholder for the repository's short name.
+
+* A new option multimailhook.subjectMaxLength is available to truncate
+ overly long subject lines.
+
+Bug fixes and minor changes
+---------------------------
+
+* Options refFilterDoSendRegex and refFilterDontSendRegex were
+ essentially broken. They should work now.
+
+* The behavior when both refFilter{Do,Dont}SendRegex and
+ refFilter{Exclusion,Inclusion}Regex are set have been slightly
+ changed. Exclusion/Inclusion is now strictly stronger than
+ DoSend/DontSend.
+
+* The management of precedence when a setting can be computed in
+ multiple ways has been considerably refactored and modified.
+ multimailhook.from and multimailhook.reponame now have precedence
+ over the environment-specific settings ($GL_REPO/$GL_USER for
+ gitolite, --stash-user/repo for Stash, --submitter/--project for
+ Gerrit).
+
+* The coverage of the testsuite has been considerably improved. All
+ configuration variables now appear at least once in the testsuite.
+
+This version was tested with Python 2.6 to 3.5. It also mostly works
+with Python 2.4, but there is one known breakage in the testsuite
+related to non-ascii characters. It was tested with Git
+1.7.10.406.gdc801, 1.8.5.6, 2.1.4, and 2.10.0.rc0.1.g07c9292.
+
+Release 1.3.1 (bugfix-only release)
+===================================
+
+* Generate links to commits in combined emails (it was done only for
+ commit emails in 1.3.0).
+
+* Fix broken links on PyPi.
+
+Release 1.3.0
+=============
+
+* New options multimailhook.htmlInIntro and multimailhook.htmlInFooter
+ now allow using HTML in the introduction and footer of emails (e.g.
+ for a more pleasant formatting or to insert a link to the commit on
+ a web interface).
+
+* A new option multimailhook.commitBrowseURL gives a simpler (and less
+ flexible) way to add a link to a web interface for commit emails
+ than multimailhook.htmlInIntro and multimailhook.htmlInFooter.
+
+* A new public function config.add_config_parameters was added to
+ allow custom hooks to set specific Git configuration variables
+ without modifying the configuration files. See an example in
+ post-receive.example.
+
+* Error handling for SMTP has been improved (we used to print Python
+ backtraces for legitimate errors).
+
+* The SMTP mailer can now check TLS certificates when the newly added
+ configuration variable multimailhook.smtpCACerts.
+
+* Python 3 portability has been improved.
+
+* The documentation's formatting has been improved.
+
+* The testsuite has been improved (we now use pyflakes to check for
+ errors in the code).
+
+This version has been tested with Python 2.4 and 2.6 to 3.5, and Git
+v1.7.10-406-gdc801e7, 2.1.4 and 2.8.1.339.g3ad15fd.
+
+No change since 1.3 RC1.
+
+Release 1.2.0
+=============
+
+* It is now possible to exclude some refs (e.g. exclude some branches
+ or tags). See refFilterDoSendRegex, refFilterDontSendRegex,
+ refFilterInclusionRegex and refFilterExclusionRegex.
+
+* New commitEmailFormat option which can be set to "html" to generate
+ simple colorized diffs using HTML for the commit emails.
+
+* git-multimail can now be ran as a Gerrit ref-updated hook, or from
+ Atlassian BitBucket Server (formerly known as Atlassian Stash).
+
+* The From: field is now more customizeable. It can be set
+ independently for refchange emails and commit emails (see
+ fromCommit, fromRefChange). The special values pusher and author can
+ be used in these configuration variable.
+
+* A new command-line option, --version, was added. The version is also
+ available in the X-Git-Multimail-Version header of sent emails.
+
+* Set X-Git-NotificationType header to differentiate the various types
+ of notifications. Current values are: diff, ref_changed_plus_diff,
+ ref_changed.
+
+* Preliminary support for Python 3. The testsuite passes with Python 3,
+ but it has not received as much testing as the Python 2 version yet.
+
+* Several encoding-related fixes. UTF-8 characters work in more
+ situations (but non-ascii characters in email address are still not
+ supported).
+
+* The testsuite and its documentation has been greatly improved.
+
+Plus all the bugfixes from version 1.1.1.
+
+This version has been tested with Python 2.4 and 2.6 to 3.5, and Git
+v1.7.10-406-gdc801e7, git-1.8.2.3 and 2.6.0. Git versions prior to
+v1.7.10-406-gdc801e7 probably work, but cannot run the testsuite
+properly.
+
+Release 1.1.1 (bugfix-only release)
+===================================
+
+* The SMTP mailer was not working with Python 2.4.
+
+Release 1.1.0
+=============
+
+* When a single commit is pushed, omit the reference changed email.
+ Set multimailhook.combineWhenSingleCommit to false to disable this
+ new feature.
+
+* In gitolite environments, the pusher's email address can be used as
+ the From address by creating a specially formatted comment block in
+ gitolite.conf (see multimailhook.from in README).
+
+* Support for SMTP authentication and SSL/TLS encryption was added,
+ see smtpUser, smtpPass, smtpEncryption in README.
+
+* A new option scanCommitForCc was added to allow git-multimail to
+ search the commit message for 'Cc: ...' lines, and add the
+ corresponding emails in Cc.
+
+* If $USER is not set, use the variable $USERNAME. This is needed on
+ Windows platform to recognize the pusher.
+
+* The emailPrefix variable can now be set to an empty string to remove
+ the prefix.
+
+* A short tutorial was added in doc/gitolite.rst to set up
+ git-multimail with gitolite.
+
+* The post-receive file was renamed to post-receive.example. It has
+ always been an example (the standard way to call git-multimail is to
+ call git_multimail.py), but it was unclear to many users.
+
+* A new refchangeShowGraph option was added to make it possible to
+ include both a graph and a log in the summary emails. The options
+ to control the graph formatting can be set via the new graphOpts
+ option.
+
+* New option --force-send was added to disable new commit detection
+ for update hook. One use-case is to run git_multimail.py after
+ running "git fetch" to send emails about commits that have just been
+ fetched (the detection of new commits was unreliable in this mode).
+
+* The testing infrastructure was considerably improved (continuous
+ integration with travis-ci, automatic check of PEP8 and RST syntax,
+ many improvements to the test scripts).
+
+This version has been tested with Python 2.4 to 2.7, and Git 1.7.1 to
+2.4.
