-## 0.5.0
-
-### Breaking Changes
-
-The predicates in the `MustFlow::Configuration` class used by the `MustFlow` library (`semmle.code.cpp.ir.dataflow.MustFlow`) have changed to be defined directly in terms of the C++ IR instead of IR dataflow nodes.
-
-### Deprecated APIs
-
-* Deprecated `semmle.code.cpp.ir.dataflow.DefaultTaintTracking`. Use `semmle.code.cpp.ir.dataflow.TaintTracking`.
-* Deprecated `semmle.code.cpp.security.TaintTrackingImpl`. Use `semmle.code.cpp.ir.dataflow.TaintTracking`.
-* Deprecated `semmle.code.cpp.valuenumbering.GlobalValueNumberingImpl`. Use `semmle.code.cpp.valuenumbering.GlobalValueNumbering`, which exposes the same API.
-
-### Minor Analysis Improvements
-
-* The `ArgvSource` flow source now uses the second parameter of `main` as its source instead of the uses of this parameter.
-* The `ArgvSource` flow source has been generalized to handle cases where the argument vector of `main` is not named `argv`.
-* The `getaddrinfo` function is now recognized as a flow source.
-* The `secure_getenv` and `_wgetenv` functions are now recognized as local flow sources.
-* The `scanf` and `fscanf` functions and their variants are now recognized as flow sources.
-* Deleted the deprecated `getName` and `getShortName` predicates from the `Folder` class.

-* The `AlertSuppression.ql` query has been updated to support the new `// codeql[query-id]` supression comments. These comments can be used to suppress an alert and must be placed on a blank line before the alert. In addition the legacy `// lgtm` and `// lgtm[query-id]` comments can now also be placed on the line before an alert.
