 Only the most important changes more recent than version 0.6 are noted here.
 
+Version 1.5.1:
+	wimlib can now open WinPE WIMs from WAIK v2.1, which had a quirk that
+	needed to be handled.
+
+Version 1.5.0:
+	Added support for "pipable" WIMs.  Pipable WIMs allow capturing images
+	to standard output and applying images from standard input, but they are
+	not compatible with Microsoft's software and are not created by default.
+	See the documentation for --pipable flag of `wimlib-imagex capture' for
+	more information.
+
+	To better support incremental backups, added support for declaring an
+	image as a modified form of another image.  See the documentation for
+	the '--update-of' option of `wimlib-imagex append' and `wimlib-imagex
+	capture'.
+
+	Added supported for "delta" WIMs.  See the documentation for the
+	'--delta-from' option of `wimlib-imagex capture'.
+
+	The library support for managing split WIMs has been changed to support
+	other arrangements, such as delta WIMs, and be easier to use.  This
+	change is visible in `wimlib-imagex', which also can now accept the
+	'--ref' option multiple times, and also now supports "delta" WIMs as
+	mentioned above.
+
+	wimlib now preserves WIM integrity tables by default, even if
+	WIMLIB_WRITE_FLAG_CHECK_INTEGRITY is not specified.  This changes the
+	behavior of `wimlib-imagex' whenever the WIM being operated on contains
+	an integrity table and the '--check' option is not specified.
+
+	`wimlib-imagex capture' now creates LZX-compressed WIMs by default
+	(when --compress is not specified).  This provides the best compression
+	ratio by default, which is usually what is desired, at a cost of some
+	speed.
+
+	`wimlib-imagex' now supports being invoked as wimCOMMAND, where COMMAND
+	is the command as in `wimlib-imagex COMMAND'; for example, it can be
+	invoked as `wimapply' as an alternative to `wimlib-imagex apply'.  The
+	appropriate hard links are created in UNIX installations of
+	`wimlib-imagex', while for the Windows distribution of `wimlib-imagex',
+	batch files that emulate this behavior are generated.
+
+	Security descriptors are now extracted correctly on Windows.
+
+	Fixed archiving DOS names in NTFS-3g capture mode.
+
+	The extraction code has been rewritten and it will now be easier to
+	support new features on all supported backends (currently Win32, UNIX,
+	and NTFS-3g).  For example, hard-linked extraction mode (--hardlink) is
+	now supported on all backends, not just UNIX.
+
+	`mkwinpeimg' now supports grabbing files from the WAIK supplement rather
+	than the WAIK itself.
+
+	wimlib_global_init() now, by default, attempts to acquire additional
+	privileges on Windows, so library clients need not do this.
+
+	This update bumps the shared library version number up to 9, since it is
+	not binary compatibible with previous releases.
+
+Version 1.4.2:
+	Fixed bug in `wimlib-imagex export' that made it impossible to export an
+	image from a WIM that is readonly at the filesystem level.
+
+	Return error code rather than segfaulting when trying to list files from
+	a non-first part of a split WIM.
+
+	Joining a WIM will now preserve the RP_FIX and READONLY flags.
+
 Version 1.4.1:
 	On Windows, paths given to wimlib-imagex are now treated case
 	insensitively.

 	Progress callbacks have been added to wimlib's wimlib_update_image()
 	function.
