# Version 0.2.1 (2021-12-15)

- upgrade ndarray and marlu for better ms writing performance.

# Version 0.2.0 (2021-11-19)

- Breaking CLI changes, most aoflagger subcommands moved to root
- [EOR-4](https://github.com/MWATelescope/Birli/projects/1#card-73186083) use Marlu to write measurement sets
- write some missing mandatory AIPS 117 fields to uvfits

# Version 0.1.10 (2021-10-22)

- add CLI flag to skip flagging
- calculate the correct reference frequency for uvfits (issue #6)
- extra logging for uvfits

# Version 0.1.9 (2021-09-01)

- [EOR-34] put aoflagger behind feature
- [EOR-33] vis io traits
- slightly faster uvfits

# Version 0.1.8 (2021-08-26)

- [EOR-32] replace aoflagger::imageset with `ndarray::Array3<Jones>` wherever possible. 
- use `mwa_rust_core` for positional and Jones
- use mwalib::get_fine_chan_freqs_hz_array

# Version 0.1.7 (2021-08-09)

- Bug fixes for uvfits output and geometric correction
- Cotter emulation for validation of uvfits against cotter output

# Version 0.1.6 (2021-07-22)

- basically just testing that release automation is working
- update all dependencies
- more optimized docker image

# Version 0.1.5 (2021-07-22)

- [EOR-3] generate uvfits file:
  - weights, uvw coordinates and visibilities cross-matched with cotter in automated tests
  - weights aren't yet affected by averaging
- Added Docker image

# Version 0.1.4 (2021-07-09)

- [EOR-22] correct_cable_lengths
- [EOR-18] Implement updated mwalib timestep / coarse channel interface
- [EOR-28] flag antennas flagged in TILEDATA HDU
- [EOR-29] handle misaligned coarse channels, flag missing hdus
- Updates:
  - mwalib = "0.8.3"
  - bindgen = "0.58.1"
- testing:
  - validate flagging output matches cotter exactly
  - utilities for dumping fits files
  - cotter-friendly metafits files
- other:
  - refactor lib,flag_io into flags, corrections, io

# Version 0.1.3 (2021-05-13)

- Release was created to test a fix for docs.rs.

# Version 0.1.2 (2021-05-05)

- Release was created to test release automation.
- [EOR-19] optimizations:
  - reducing `pin()`s.
  - parallelize allocating, loading and flagging
  - use chunks_exact instead of chunks
  - use Vec instead of BTreeMap where possible
- [EOR-21] quality of life features:
  - progress bars!
  - basic timing info for each stage
- [EOR-20] automation and [documentation](doc/benchmark_results.md) of benchmarks
- Public API is fully documented.
- Use Rust 1.51

# Version 0.1.1 (2021-05-04)

- Release was created to test docs.rs. Flagging with AOFlagger mostly works and seems to resemble
  output from Cotter with some caveats:
  - does not match for observations where not all coarse channels start at the same time because of
    <https://github.com/MWATelescope/mwalib/issues/22>
  - no optimization, so significantly slower.
- [EOR-6] CI/CD runs multi-platform tests and tracks coverage automatically
- [EOR-13] 95% test coverage using synthetic test data
- [EOR-14] Created CXX Bindings for AOFlagger
- [EOR-11] GPUFits files can be read into AOFlagger ImageSet objects
- [EOR-15] Writes to .mwaf flag file sets.
- [EOR-17] Implemented `birli aoflagger` command line interface
- [EOR-20] CI/CD tracks benchmark results automatically
