 - Remove additional line breaks after call_expr before params struct args (#19795)
 
 #### Breaking changes
 
 #### Checker improvements/fixes
+- Check error of implementing other module private interface (fix #19620) (#19688)
+- Extend byte deprecation warning to array init types (#19671)
+- Extend byte deprecation warnings to return types (#19668)
+- Fix negative cap, len checks in array init (#19694)
+- Turn warning for var and param module name duplicates into error (#19645)
+- Fix closure in if guard (#19750)
+- Fix closure in if guard, with multi_return (#19765)
 - Fix comptime enumdata value property access (#19768)
 - Fix `field ?&Type` without default value (#19786)
 - Avoid nil assign to option var (#19746)
+- Allow for a shared variable to be whole reassigned (keeping the same mutex state) (fix #15649) (#19751)
 
 #### Parser improvements
+- parser: add `set_all` + `clear_all` methods to `[flag]` enum bitfields (#19717)
+- ast: reduce cost of frequently called functions by using constants (#19733)

+- pref: fix unintended file extensions in default output names, allow for `v run file.c.v` (#19745)
 - transformer: fix using a constant, instead of a fn parameter with the same name (fix #19766) (#19773)
 
 #### Standard library
+- crypto.sha: fix calculating the same hash values when .sum() is called several times for sha1/256/512 (fix #19696) (#19697)
+- crypto.md5: fix calculating the same hash values, when .sum() is called several times (#19703)
