# Release X.Y (202?-??-??)
-* Nix now provides better integration with zsh's run-help feature. It is now
- included in the Nix installation in the form of an autoloadable shell
- function, run-help-nix. It picks up Nix subcommands from the currently typed
- in command and directs the user to the associated man pages.
-
-* `nix repl` has a new build-'n-link (`:bl`) command that builds a derivation
- while creating GC root symlinks.
-
-* The path produced by `builtins.toFile` is now allowed to be imported or read
- even with restricted evaluation. Note that this will not work with a
- read-only store.
-
-* `nix build` has a new `--print-out-paths` flag to print the resulting output paths.
- This matches the default behaviour of `nix-build`.
-
-* You can now specify which outputs of a derivation `nix` should
- operate on using the syntax `installable^outputs`,
- e.g. `nixpkgs#glibc^dev,static` or `nixpkgs#glibc^*`. By default,
- `nix` will use the outputs specified by the derivation's
- `meta.outputsToInstall` attribute if it exists, or all outputs
- otherwise.
-
- Selecting derivation outputs using the attribute selection syntax
- (e.g. `nixpkgs#glibc.dev`) no longer works.
+* Nix can now be built with LTO by passing `--enable-lto` to `configure`.
+ LTO is currently only supported when building with GCC.
* Add experimental *indexed store derivations* installable syntax, part of the
the `computed-derivations` experimental feature.
