 The `group` command has been deprecated in favor of the new `chunks` command in [#13377](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/13377). The hope is that the name "chunks" is more descriptive or intuitive compared to "group" so that users can more easily find the command they are looking for. `chunks` behaves exactly like `group` except that it will error if provided a chunk size of zero.

+
+Thanks to [@Zoybean](https://github.com/Zoybean) in [#13415](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/13415), the `watch` command now has a `--quiet` flag which will prevent the initial watch message from being shown.

 ### `char nul` [[toc](#table-of-content)]
 
 Thanks to [@weirdan](https://github.com/weirdan) in [#13241](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/13241), the NUL character (0x0) is now available via `char nul`, `char null_byte`, or `char zero_byte`.
 
 ## Breaking changes [[toc](#table-of-content)]
 
+### `generate` [[toc](#table-of-content)]
+
+To support default closure parameters, the argument order for `generate` has been reversed. Instead of the initial value followed by the closure, `generate` now takes a closure followed by an initial value ([#13393](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/13393)).
+
+For example, using a closure with a default parameter:
+
+```nushell
+> generate {|fib=[0, 1]| { out: $fib.0, next: [$fib.1, ($fib.0 + $fib.1)] } } | skip 2 | take 6

 ### Default column numbering [[toc](#table-of-content)]
 
 The naming for default columns in `from csv`, `from tsv`, and `from ssv` was changed from 1-based indexing to 0-based indexing in [#13209](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/13209) thanks to [@ito-hiroki](https://github.com/ito-hiroki). I.e., instead of:

 ## Other changes [[toc](#table-of-content)]
 
-### `to json` [[toc](#table-of-content)]
+### `http` commands [[toc](#table-of-content)]
+
+The data provided to the `http` family of commands (`post`, `put`, `patch`, `delete`) could previously only be supplied as a positional argument. But after [#13254](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/13254), these commands now support taking data as pipeline input. This also means that these commands can now stream the input data over the network!
+
+```nushell
+# non-streaming version, content-type is automatically set
+open test.json | http post https://httpbin.org/post
+
+# streaming version, content-type needs to be set manually
+open --raw test.json | http post -t application/json https://httpbin.org/post
+```
+
+### `metadata set --content-type` [[toc](#table-of-content)]
+
+To implement automatic content-type detection, a new metadata field, the `content-type`, was added to pipeline outputs in [#13284](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/13284). This field can be manually set using `metadata set` with the `--content-type` flag. Using this, we could have rewritten the streaming `http post` example above as:
+
+```nushell
+open --raw test.json
+| metadata set --content-type application/json
+| http post https://httpbin.org/post
+```

 Thanks to [@drmason13](https://github.com/drmason13) in [#133523](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/13352), `to json` now places braces on the same line instead of on a new line.

 The signature of the `do` command has been fixed in [#13216](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/13216) thanks to [@NotTheDr01ds](https://github.com/NotTheDr01ds). The first parameter is now correctly typed as a `closure` instead of `any`, and this should allow for
 better compile-time checks/safety.

+
+Thanks to [@hqsz](https://github.com/hqsz) in [#13289](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/13289), `into datetime` can now take date strings without a timezone in combination with the `--format` flag.
