+Incompatibilities:
+
+ - Setting the cursor color no longer automatically sets the text to
+   bold. The old 'lazy' behavior was a bug.
+
 Improvements:
 
+ - Add ability to toggle between showing shorter dates (without time
+   info) and relative dates. Use 'D' to toggle between date formats.
+ - Show the active (instead of the default) keybindings in the help
+   view. Furthermore, honor the keymap when suggesting actions in the
+   help messages.
  - Add branch view for choosing which branch to display in the main
    view. Bound to 'H' by default.
  - Tree view: sort entries by name, date or author. Toggling is bound to
    'i' by default, with 'I' controlling whether or not to sort in
    ascending order.
+ - Make height of the lower view in a split view configurable by setting
+   the 'split-view-height' variable to a number or a percentage.
+   Defaults to 2/3 of the total view height.
+ - Allow multiple text attributes for color commands:
+
+       color cursor white blue underline bold
