+
+Upgrade Notes
+=============
+
+* The deprecated (and broken) OAuth 1.0 implementation has been removed.
+
+* If user code reads or manipulates replicator document states,
+ consider using the ``[replicator] update_docs = true`` compatibility
+ parameter. In that case replicator will continue updating documents
+ with transient replication states. However, that will incure a
+ performance cost. Consider instead switching using
+ ``_scheduler/docs`` HTTP endpoint.
+
+* The ``stale`` parameter for views and ``_find`` has been deprecated in favour
+ of two new parameters: ``stable`` and ``update``. The old ``stale=ok``
+ behaviour is equivalent to ``stable=true&update=false``, and the old
+ ``stale=update_after`` behaviour is equivalent to
``stable=true&update=lazy``.
+ The deprecated ``stale`` parameter will be removed in CouchDB 3.0.
+
+* The ``[couchdb] max_document_size`` configuration parameter was renamed
+ to ``[httpd] max_http_request_size`` to reflect its actual implementation.
+ It has been enhanced by a new ``[couchdb] single_max_doc_size`` setting.
+ Both are documented in the shipped ``default.ini`` file.
+
+.. _release/2.1.1:
+
+Version 2.1.1
+=============
+
+General
+-------
+
+* :ghissue:`617`: CouchDB now supports compilation and running under Erlang/OTP
+ 20.x.
+
+* :ghissue:``: The ``couch_peruser`` functionality is now *really* fixed.
+ Really.
+
+* :ghissue:`827`: The cookie domain for AuthSession cookies, used in a
+ proxy authentication configuration, can now be customized via the ini file.
+
+* :ghissue:`858`: It is now possible to modify shard maps for system databases.
+
+* :ghissue:`732`: Due to an Erlang bug (ERL-343), invalid paths can be
+ returned if volumes are mounted containing whitespace in their name. This
+ problem surfaced primarily on macOS (Time Machine volumes). CouchDB now
+ works around this bug in unpatched versions of Erlang by skipping the free
+ space check performed by the compaction daemon. Erlang itself will
+ correctly perform free space checks in version 21.0.
+
+* The Dockerfile in the source repository has been retired. For a current
+ Dockerfile, see the ``couchdb-docker`` repository.
