 ## v0.13.0
 
+*Aug 2, 2024*
+
 This release:
 - changes the contract of the Iterator Key() and Value() APIs: the caller
 is now responsible for creating a copy of their returned value if they want to modify it.
 - bumps the Go version to 1.22.5 (from 1.22). Go 1.22.5 does not introduce new language
 features, therefore code using older version will still compile. However, we recommend to
 upgrade to the latest version(s) of Go as soon as possible.
+- removes support for boltDB and clevelDB.
