+<H3>Fixes</H3>
+
+<P>If files are created while e4defrag is running, it's quite possible for
+succeed_cnt to be larger than total_count, in which case the number of
+failures (calculated via total_count - succeed_cnt) will overflow and
+become a very large unsigned number. (Addresses Debian Bug: #888899)</P>
+
+<P>Fix e2fsck so it can correctly handle directories > 2 GiB when the
+largedir feature is enabled.</P>
+
+<P>Fix mke2fs's hugefile creation so that we correctly reserve enough
+metadata blocks for a given file system size. Otherwise for certain
+unfortunately sized disks/partitions, the hugefile creation would fail.
+(Addresses Google Bug: 123239032)</P>
+
+<P>Fix the libext2fs library to be more robust against invalid block group
+descriptors to prevent e2fsprogs from crashing (or possibly being
+p0wned) by maliciously modified file systems. (Addresses Google Bugs:
+119171089, 119929050)</P>
+
+<P>Fix mke2fs and debugfs so they can correctly copy in files > 2 GiB.</P>
+
+<P>Fix debugfs so its stat command can correct supportly display directory
+sizes > 2 GiB.</P>
+
+<P>Fix memory leaks in debugfs, mke2fs, and e2freefrag.</P>
+
+<H3>Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.</H3>
+
+<P>Synchronized changes from Android's AOSP e2fsprogs tree.</P>
+
+<P>Avoid unnecessarily linking badblocks with the libblkid shared library.
+(Addresses Debian Bug: #919958)</P>
+
+<P>Stop depending on the debugfs binary for test data, since depending on
+the compiler, there might be sufficient aligned zero bytes that the
+resulting file(s) created by test cases could have unexpected sparse
+blocks, leading to test failures. (Addresses Google Bug: #122085761)</P>
+
+<P>Fixed various debian packaging issues.</P>
