Changelog

This repository does not keep a changelog of its own. Qt is released as a set of modules, and the change information for a release is published with that release rather than tracked here.

Where to look

Cumulative release notes are published in qt/qtreleasenotes.

What changed in a Qt version. Each minor release has a "What's New" page in the Qt documentation. It lists new modules, new and deprecated APIs, and the notable changes per module. See What's New in Qt 6.

Release phases and schedule. Each release has a wiki page with the release plan. See Qt Releasing Wiki.

Moving between major versions. The Porting to Qt 6 guide covers the changes that affect existing code.

Qt 4 and Qt 5 changelogs

Most module repositories feature a dist directory holding changes-* files. These are no longer maintained. They stop at changes-6.0.0 and are kept only as a historical record of Qt 4 and Qt 5 releases. Do not add to them, and do not treat them as a current source of change information for Qt 6. Use the sources above instead.
