+Release notes for libguestfs 1.12.0
+-----------------------------------
+
+LAST UPDATED TO COMMIT 76bd81820f50a390b7e853d65f41b29a37e63f43
+
+These release notes only cover the differences from the previous
+stable/dev branch split (1.10.0).  For detailed changelogs, please see
+the git repository, or the ChangeLog file distributed in the tarball.
+
+New features
+
+ - virt-ls -lR option allows complex file iteration and guest analysis.
+
+ - virt-win-reg supports HKEY_USERS\<SID> and HKEY_USERS\<username>.
+
+ - virt-win-reg new option --unsafe-printable-strings allows printable
+   strings to be displayed in the output (unsafely: read the documentation
+   before using).
+
+ - Inspection API can get an icon or logo for certain guests.
+
+ - virt-inspector includes the logo and hostname for certain guests.
+
+ - virt-inspector can now get the version and release numbers for RPM
+   packages.
+
+ - virt-edit has been rewritten in C.

+ - guestfish, guestmount, virt-cat, virt-df, virt-edit, virt-filesystems,
+   virt-inspector, virt-ls and virt-rescue now allow you to use
+   "-d UUID" option to specify a guest by UUID.  This makes them more
+   robust to use from other programs.
+
+ - guestfs_close now appears in trace messages.
+
+ - Python binding adds explicit g.close() method.
+
+ - Python programs can now use the new event API.

+   inside guests.
+
+ - 9pfs (Plan 9 filesystems exported from the host) are now supported.
+
+ - Add -DGUESTFS_WARN_DEPRECATED=1 to warn about use of deprecated API
+   functions in C programs.
