@@ -2,3 +2,22 @@ This file is intended to note docs changes that are being made 
by commits so
 that people working on the documentation know that changes are needed. This
 includes entries that would make sense for the migration guide or release 
notes.
 
+The path names in WORKDIR have been simplified to remove PE and PR and just 
use PV. This change
+also applies to the path to stamp files via STAMP.
+
+Changes have been made to the way source control versions are handled in PV. 
Instead
+of being injected into PV, these are now injected via PKGV at package 
generation time.
+This further simplifies directory names using PV and means the resolution of 
revsisions
+can be more controled and predictable at the bitbake level. Previously, PV 
could be
+expanded at any point during parsing, the expansion point is now much more 
predicatable.
+
+The code now only injects the revsision information to PKGV, if ends with a "+"
+character, which was our standard convention for this. As such, SRCPV is no 
longer
+needed/used and is now simply empty. The variable can be removed from PV.
+
+One change of behaviour is that for git SRC_URI entries, invalid revisions 
that could never
+be a sha will be assumed to be tags and a resolution will be attempted during 
parsing. This
+will trigger parsing errors. Recipes should raise SkipRecipe rather than set 
dummy invalid
+revisions.
