@@ -80,3 +80,6 @@ Changes from version 2.3 which are relevant for developers:
   - Fixed a potential bug using single precision system blas on a mac (notice that currently plumed only uses
     double precision, so it is harmless).
   - Added `--enable-rpath` option for autoconf (off by default).
+  - Files related to changelog are now stored as `.md` files. This makes
+    it possible to navigate them from github.
