+#### Version control and issue tracking
 
+- Users can now track changes (<code>https://gitlab.irstea.fr/HYCAR-Hydro/airgr</code>) and issues (<code>https://gitlab.irstea.fr/HYCAR-Hydro/airgr/issues</code>).
 
 #### Bug fixes
 
-- Fixed bug in <code>RunModel_CemaNeige()</code>. The function now runs correctly when <code>IndPeriod_WarmUp = 0L</code> in <code>CreateRunOptions()</code> value without <code>"CumFreq"</code> in order to completely disable the warm-up period (e.g. to perform a forecast form a given initial state).

 - Fixed bug in <code>CreateIniStates()</code>. The function now returns the right number of end states when CemaNeige is used whithout hysteresis.
-- Fixed bug in the <code>RunModel_CemaNeige&#42;()</code> functions. G and Gthr end states are no more inversed in the output values.

 #### Minor user-visible changes
 
-- spurious flows set to <code>NA</code> into the <code>BasinObs</code> time series of the <code>L0123001</code> dataset.
