## v13
-- The `--network-veth` option has been renamed `--netdev`, since it implies usage of a virtual ethernet
- device, which is not what is done when booting images with qemu where a TUN/TAP device is used.
-- The networkd config file installed by mkosi when the `--netdev` option (what used to be `--network-veth`)
- is used (formerly `/etc/systemd/network/80-mkosi-network-veth.network` in the image) now only matches
- against network interfaces using the virtio_net driver. Please make sure you weren't relying on this file
- to configure any network interfaces other than the tun/tap virtio-net interface created by mkosi when
- booting the image in QEMU with the --netdev option. If you were relying on this config file to configure
- other interfaces, you'll have to re-create it with the correct match and a lower initial number in the
- filename to make sure networkd will keep configuring your interface, e.g. via the `mkosi.skeleton` or
- `mkosi.extra` trees or a `mkosi.postinst` script.
-- The kernel-install script for building unified kernel images was removed. From v13 onwards, on systems
- using kernel-install, mkosi won't automatically build new unified kernel images anymore when a kernel is
- updated or installed. To keep this behavior, you can install the kernel-install script manually via a
- skeleton tree. The original script can be found
+- The `--network-veth` option has been renamed to `--netdev`. The old name made
+ sense with virtual ethernet devices, but when booting images with qemu a
+ TUN/TAP device is used instead.
+- The network config file installed by mkosi when the `--netdev` (previously
+ `--network-veth`) option is used (formerly
+ `/etc/systemd/network/80-mkosi-network-veth.network` in the image) now only

-- Added QemuKvm option to configure whether to use KVM or not when running `mkosi qemu`.
-- mkosi won't default to the same OS release as the host system anymore when the host system uses the same
- distribution as the image that's being built. Instead, when no release is specified, mkosi will now always
- default to the default version embedded in mkosi itself.
-- mkosi will now use the pacman keyring from the host when building Arch images. This means that users will,
- on top of installing archlinux-keyring, also have to run `pacman-key --init` and
- `pacman-key --populate archlinux` on the host system to be able to build Arch images. Also, unless the
- package manager is configured to do it automatically, the host keyring will have to be updated after
- archlinux-keyring updates by running `pacman-key --populate archlinux` and `pacman-key --updatedb`.
-- Added support for qemu direct linux boot via setting `BootProtocols=linux`. When enabled, the kernel image,
- initrd and cmdline will be extracted from the image and passed to qemu when `mkosi qemu` is used to
- directly boot into the kernel image without needing a bootloader. This can be used to boot for example
- s390x images in qemu.
-- The initrd will now always be rebuilt after the extra trees and build artifacts have been installed into
- the image.
-- The github action was migrated to Ubuntu Jammy. To migrate any jobs using the action, add
- `runs-on: ubuntu-22.04` to the job config.
-- All images are now configured by default with the C.UTF-8 locale.
-- Added `--repository-directory` option which can be used to configure a directory with extra repository
- files to be used by the package manager when building an image. Note that this option is currently only
- supported for pacman and dnf based distros.
-- `--skeleton-tree` is now supported on Debian based distros.

+- Option `--skeleton-tree` is now supported on Debian-based distros.
