## [0.4.0]https://github.com/rvben/jira-cli/compare/v0.3.16...v0.4.0 - 2026-08-10

Attachment operations were contributed by [@phlppbmm](https://github.com/phlppbmm)
in [#6](https://github.com/rvben/jira-cli/pull/6). Thank you.

**Breaking, JSON output only.** `assignee`, `priority`, `reporter` and
`description` now report `null` when the field is absent. They previously
reported `"-"`, the placeholder meant for table output, which made an unassigned
issue indistinguishable from one assigned to a user whose display name is `-`
(an empty description was `""`). `issues assign` now emits `accountId: null` when
it unassigns, instead of an undeclared `assignee` key, so both paths return the
same keys. Table output is unchanged.
