API Changes
***********

.. Changes that may require updates in plugins or other code that uses
   breezy.

Internals
*********

.. Major internal changes, unlikely to be visible to users or plugin
   developers, but interesting for brz developers.

   spurious test failures and changes to the way things should be tested.

* Increased timeouts since e.g. the setup test takes longer to run
  now we're compiling rust files. (Jelmer Vernooij)

  when hitting timeouts. (Jelmer Vernooij)
