+v0.8.1
+- perf : much improved performance for XXH3 streaming variants, notably on gcc and msvc
+- perf : improved XXH64 speed and latency on small inputs
+- perf : small XXH32 speed and latency improvement on small inputs of random size
+- perf : minor stack usage improvement for XXH32 and XXH64
+- api  : new experimental variants XXH3_*_withSecretandSeed()
+- api  : update XXH3_generateSecret(), can no generate secret of any size (>= XXH3_SECRET_SIZE_MIN)
+- cli  : xxhsum can now generate and check XXH3 checksums, using command `-H3`
+- build: can build xxhash without XXH3, with new build macro XXH_NO_XXH3
+- build: fix xxh_x86dispatch build with MSVC, by @apankrat
+- build: XXH_INLINE_ALL can always be used safely, even after XXH_NAMESPACE or a previous XXH_INLINE_ALL
+- build: improved PPC64LE vector support, by @mpe
+- install: fix pkgconfig, by @ellert
+- install: compatibility with Haiku, by @Begasus
+- doc  : code comments made compatible with doxygen, by @easyaspi314
+- misc : XXH_ACCEPT_NULL_INPUT_POINTER is no longer necessary, all functions can accept NULL input pointers, as long as size == 0
+- misc : complete refactor of CI tests on Github Actions, offering much larger coverage, by @t-mat
+- misc : xxhsum code base split into multiple specialized units, within directory cli/, by @easyaspi314
+
+v0.8.0
+- api : stabilize XXH3
+- cli : xxhsum can parse BSD-style --check lines, by @WayneD
+- cli : `xxhsum -` accepts console input, requested by @jaki
+- cli : xxhsum accepts -- separator, by @jaki
+- cli : fix : print correct default algo for symlinked helpers, by @martinetd
+- install: improved pkgconfig script, allowing custom install locations, requested by @ellert
+
+v0.7.4
+- perf: automatic vector detection and selection at runtime (`xxh_x86dispatch.h`), initiated by @easyaspi314
+- perf: added AVX512 support, by @gzm55
+- api : new: secret generator `XXH_generateSecret()`, suggested by @koraa
+- api : fix: XXH3_state_t is movable, identified by @koraa
+- api : fix: state is correctly aligned in AVX mode (unlike `malloc()`), by @easyaspi314
+- api : fix: streaming generated wrong values in some combination of random ingestion lengths, reported by @WayneD
+- cli : fix unicode print on Windows, by @easyaspi314
+- cli : can `-c` check file generated by sfv
+- build: `make DISPATCH=1` generates `xxhsum` and `libxxhash` with runtime vector detection (x86/x64 only)
+- install: cygwin installation support
+- doc : Cryptol specification of XXH32 and XXH64, by @weaversa
+
+v0.7.3
+- perf: improved speed for large inputs (~+20%)
+- perf: improved latency for small inputs (~10%)
+- perf: s390x Vectorial code, by @easyaspi314
+- cli: improved support for Unicode filenames on Windows, thanks to @easyaspi314 and @t-mat
+- api: `xxhash.h` can now be included in any order, with and without `XXH_STATIC_LINKING_ONLY` and `XXH_INLINE_ALL`
+- build: xxHash's implementation transferred into `xxhash.h`. No more need to have `xxhash.c` in the `/include` directory for `XXH_INLINE_ALL` to work
+- install: created pkg-config file, by @bket
+- install: VCpkg installation instructions, by @LilyWangL
+- doc: Highly improved code documentation, by @easyaspi314
+- misc: New test tool in `/tests/collisions`: brute force collision tester for 64-bit hashes
+
+v0.7.2
+- Fixed collision ratio of `XXH128` for some specific input lengths, reported by @svpv
+- Improved `VSX` and `NEON` variants, by @easyaspi314
+- Improved performance of scalar code path (`XXH_VECTOR=0`), by @easyaspi314
+- `xxhsum`: can generate 128-bit hashes with the `-H2` option (note: for experimental purposes only! `XXH128` is not yet frozen)
+- `xxhsum`: option `-q` removes status notifications
+
+v0.7.1
+- Secret first: the algorithm computation can be altered by providing a "secret", which is any blob of bytes, of size >= `XXH3_SECRET_SIZE_MIN`.
+- `seed` is still available, and acts as a secret generator
+- updated `ARM NEON` variant by @easyaspi314
+- Streaming implementation is available
+- Improve compatibility and performance with Visual Studio, with help from @aras-p
+- Better integration when using `XXH_INLINE_ALL`: do not pollute host namespace, use its own macros, such as `XXH_ASSERT()`, `XXH_ALIGN`, etc.
+- 128-bit variant provides helper functions for comparison of hashes.
+- Better `clang` generation of `rotl` instruction, thanks to @easyaspi314
+- `XXH_REROLL` build macro to reduce binary size, by @easyaspi314
+- Improved `cmake` script, by @Mezozoysky
+- Full benchmark program provided in `/tests/bench`
