+# v0.5.0-alpha
+
+Version v0.5.0 will be a major release, including breaking changes and
+substantial new features. I would be very grateful for any help with testing,
+along with any comments, questions or suggestions,
+to ensure as much functionality as possible in v0.5.0. Please work from the
+`main` branch to ensure you have the latest version.
+
+## Changes to existing CLI options
+- The option to disable line wrapping has been changed from
+  `--keep` to `--nowrap`.
+- The option to set the number of characters used per indentation level
+  has been changed from `--tab` to `--tabsize`.
+- The option to set the maximum line length for wrapping
+  has been changed from `--wrap` to `--wraplen`.
+- See below for information on the new `--config`,
+  `--man` and `--completion` flags.
+
+## Configuration file support
+Configuring tex-fmt can now be achieved using a configuration file
+as well as CLI arguments.
+The configuration file can be read from a user-specified path,
+from the current working directory, from the root of the current
+git repository, or from the user's configuration directory,
+in order of decreasing priority.
+Arguments passed on the command line will always override those
+specified in configuration files.
+
+## Man pages
+Man pages can be generated using the `--man` flag.
+Pre-build man pages are also available for download
+from the GitHub repository.
+
+## Shell completion
+Completion files for popular shells, including
+bash, fish, zsh, elvish and PowerShell,
+can be generated using the `--completion <shell>` flag.
+Pre-built completion scripts are also available for download
+from the GitHub repository.
+
+## Minor changes
+- Fixed bug with `\itemsep` matching the `\item` pattern
+- Added last non-indented line number to
+  "Indent did not return to zero" error messages
+
 # v0.4.7
 
 - Fix bug with `--stdin` adding newlines at EOF
