+# List of backwards compatibility fixes
+
+As NGLess uses a version declaration string at the top of script means that
+NGLess can change its behaviour depending on the version used in the script.
+
+## < NGLess 1.1
+
+- The way that CIGAR sequence lengths are computed has changed to match
+  samtools. This implies that the computation of `min_match_size` and
+  `min_identity_pc` have slightly changed.
+
+## < NGLess 0.8
+
+- Select changes how a corner case is handled.
+
+## < NGLess 0.6
+
+- The `count` function now defaults to `include_minus1` being true.
+
+## < NGLess 0.5
+
+- The `preprocess` function now modifies its argument. Older code using
+
+```python
+preprocess(input) using |r|:
+    ...
+```
+is automatically treated as:
+
+
+```python
+input = preprocess(input) using |r|:
+    ...
+```
