 == New Features ==
 
- * New config `commands.commit.post-status` shows status after successful
- commit.
-
- * `hg root` now has templating support, including support for showing
-   where a repo share's source is. See `hg help -v root` for details.
-
- * New `--force-close-branch` flag for `hg commit` to forcibly close
-   branch from a non-head changeset.
-
- * The curses-based interface for commands like `hg commit -i` now supports
-   a range-select mechanism. Select the first line using space like before,
-   navigate to the last line, and press X (capital x) to set all items in
-   the range at once. Lowercase x has been added as a synonym for space to
-   help reinforce the mechanism, and pressing enter/return continues to be a
-   synonym for "toggle the current line and move down to the next item in
-   this section."
 
 == New Experimental Features ==
 
- * New config `experimental.log.topo` makes `hg log -G` use
-   topological sorting. This is especially useful for aliases since it
-   lets the alias accept an `-r` option while still using topological
-   sorting with or without the `-r` (unlike if you use the `sort(...,
-   topo)` revset).
-
 
 == Bug Fixes  ==
 
- * issue4292: "hg log and {files} {file_adds} {file_mods} {file_dels}
-   in template show wrong files on merged revision". See details in
-   "Backwards Compatibility Changes".
-
 
 == Backwards Compatibility Changes ==
 
- * Removed (experimental) support for log graph lines mixing
-   parent/grandparent styles. Setting
-   e.g. `experimental.graphstyle.parent = !` and
-   `experimental.graphstyle.grandparent = 3.` would use `!` for the
-   first three lines of the graph and then `.`. This is no longer
-   supported.
-
- * If `ui.origbackuppath` had been (incorrectly) configured to point
-   to a file, we will now replace that file by a directory and put
-   backups in that directory. This is similar to how we would
-   previously replace files *in* the configured directory by
-   subdirectories.
-
-* Template keyword `{file_mods}`, `{file_adds}`, and `{file_dels}`
-   have changed behavior on merge commits. They used to be relative to
-   the first parent, but they now consider both parents. `{file_adds}`
-   shows files that exists in the commit but did not exist in either
-   parent. `{file_dels}` shows files that do not exist in the commit
-   but existed in either parent. `{file_mods}` show the remaining
-   files from `{files}` that were not in the other two
-   sets.
-
 
 == Internal API Changes ==
 
- * Matchers are no longer iterable. Use `match.files()` instead.
-
- * `match.visitdir()` and `match.visitchildrenset()` now expect the
-   empty string instead of '.' to indicate the root directory.
-
- * `util.dirs()` and `util.finddirs()` now include an entry for the
-   root directory (empty string).
-
- * shelve is no longer an extension now. it will be turned on by default.
-
- * New API to manage unfinished operations: Earlier there were distinct APIs
-   which dealt with unfinished states and separate lists maintaining them
-   that are `cmdutil.afterresolvestates`, `cmdutil.unfinishedstates` and
-   `cmdutil.STATES`. Now these have been unified to a single
-   API which handles the various states and their utilities. This API
-   has been added to `state.py`. Now instead of adding to these 3 lists
-   independently a state for a new operation can be registered using
-   `addunfinished()` in `state` module.
-
- * `cmdutil.checkunfinished()` now includes detection for merge too.
-
- * merge abort has been disallowed in case an operation of higher
-   precedence is in progress to avoid cases of partial abort of
-   operations.
-
- * We used to automatically attempt to make extensions compatible with
-   Python 3 (by translating their source code while loading it). We no
-   longer do that.
