0.6.0.0 -- 2023-05-01

• GHC-9.6 support; dropped support of GHC-8.8.

0.5.1.0

• tags for local bindings (from where clauses)

0.5.0.0

0.4.0.1

• ghc-tags-plugin is now compatible with GHC-9.4. NOTE: GHC-9.4 includes a fix, which makes cabal cache mechanism work properly when plugins are enabled.

0.3.0.0 -- 2021-05-01

• filter adjacents tags: preserve only type signatures (filter out adjacent terms) or data constructors (filter out adjacent type constructors).

0.2.4.0 -- 2020-09-08
