# Change Log
This project attempts to adhere to [Semantic Versioning](http://semver.org).

## [Unreleased]

## [0.7.0] - (2018-01-17)
### Changed
- Faster Levenshtein implementation (thanks @wdv4758h)

### Removed
- Remove the "against_vec" functions. They are one-liners now, so they don't
  seem to add enough value to justify making the API larger. I didn't find
  anybody using them when I skimmed through a GitHub search. If you do use them,
  you can change the calls to something like:
```rust
let distances = strings.iter().map(|a| jaro(target, a)).collect();
```

## [0.6.0] - (2016-12-26)
### Added
- Add optimal string alignment distance

### Fixed
- Fix Damerau-Levenshtein implementation (previous implementation was actually
  optimal string alignment; see this [Damerau-Levenshtein explanation])

## [0.5.2] - (2016-11-21)
### Changed
- Remove Cargo generated documentation in favor of a [docs.rs] link

## [0.5.1] - (2016-08-23)
### Added
- Add Cargo generated documentation

### Fixed
- Fix panic when Jaro or Jaro-Winkler are given strings both with a length of
  one

## [0.5.0] - (2016-08-11)
### Changed
- Make Hamming faster (thanks @IBUzPE9) when the two strings have the same
  length but slower when they have different lengths

## [0.4.1] - (2016-04-18)
### Added
- Add Vagrant setup for development
- Add AppVeyor configuration for Windows CI

### Fixed
- Fix metrics when given strings with multibyte characters (thanks @WanzenBug)

## [0.4.0] - (2015-06-10)
### Added
- For each metric, add a function that takes a vector of strings and returns a
vector of results (thanks @ovarene)

## [0.3.0] - (2015-04-30)
### Changed
- Remove usage of unstable Rust features

## [0.2.5] - (2015-04-24)
### Fixed
- Remove unnecessary `Float` import from doc tests

## [0.2.4] - (2015-04-15)
### Fixed
- Remove unused `core` feature flag

## [0.2.3] - (2015-04-01)
### Fixed
- Remove now unnecessary `Float` import

## [0.2.2] - (2015-03-29)
### Fixed
- Remove usage of `char_at` (marked as unstable)

## [0.2.1] - (2015-02-20)
### Fixed
- Update bit vector import to match Rust update

## [0.2.0] - (2015-02-19)
### Added
- Implement Damerau-Levenshtein
- Add tests in docs

## [0.1.1] - (2015-02-10)
### Added
- Configure Travis for CI
- Add rustdoc comments

### Fixed
- Limit Jaro-Winkler return value to a maximum of 1.0
- Fix float comparsions in tests

## [0.1.0] - (2015-02-09)
### Added
- Implement Hamming, Jaro, Jaro-Winkler, and Levenshtein
