 ## :bell: Changelog
 
-Made MaxAsync=1 the default - edit to change.
+- **v0.6.1**: Hotfixes: (try removing set+shopt+shopt if debugging more errors)
-Added -x option to pass a MaxAsync value on runtime.
+    - xargs/pipefail, removed `-set -e` bash option for now.
-Made it possible to disable xargs -P-flag by setting MaxAsync=0 or passing -x 0 option.
+    - unbound variables fixed (hopefully)
-
+    - dependency installer from pkgmanager rewritten
+- **v0.6.0**: Refactored a lot of code, cleaner logic and syntax, safer variables.
+    - Safer bash options with `set -euo pipefail`, `shopt -s nullglob` and `failglob`.
+    - Added a `default.conf` for user settings - persistent through updates.
+    - Added `notify_slack.sh` template for slack curl api.
+- **v0.5.8**: Added version checks to all templates and a notification if a new template is released.
+- **v0.5.7**: Rewritten templates - now with a function to notify when there's a new Dockcheck release.
+    - Manually migrate your current `notify.sh` settings to a new template for new functionality.
 - **v0.5.6.1**: Async xargs hotfix - due to errors `failed to request manifest head ... context canceled`
     - Defaulted subprocess to 1 with `MaxAsync=1`, increase to find a stable value in your environment.
     - Added `-x N` option to pass `MaxAsync` value at runtime.
     - To disable xargs `-P` flag (max processes) all together, set `MaxAsync` to 0.
 - **v0.5.6.0**: Heavily improved performance due to async checking for updates.
-- **v0.5.5.0**: osx and bsd compatibility changes + rewrite of dependency installer
-- **v0.5.4.0**: Added support for a Prometheus+node_exporter metric collection through a file collector.
-- **v0.5.3.0**: Local image check changed (use imageId instead of name) and Gotify-template fixed (whale icon removed).
-- **v0.5.2.1**: Rewrite of dependency downloads, jq can be installed with package manager or static binary.
