+The linter was bumped to `0.1.76` which introduces the following new lints to the SDK:
 
-* updated `prefer_final_locals` to check to for loop variables
-* fixed `type_annotate_public_apis` false positives on local functions
-* fixed `avoid_shadowing_type_parameters` to report shadowed type parameters in generic typedefs
-* fixed `use_setters_to_change_properties` to not wrongly lint overriding methods
-* fixed `cascade_invocations` to not lint awaited targets
-* fixed `prefer_conditional_assignment` false positives
-* fixed `join_return_with_assignment` false positives
-* fixed `cascade_invocations` false positives
-* miscellaneous documentation improvements
-* updated `invariant_booleans` status to experimental
+* `unnecessary_await_in_return`
+* `use_function_type_syntax_for_parameters`
+* `avoid_returning_null_for_future`
+* `avoid_shadowing_type_parameters`
+
+and:
+
+* `unnecessary_parenthesis` has been updated to allow wrapping a `!` argument and improved to handle function expressions
+* miscellaneous documentation grammar and spelling fixes have been made
+* error messages for `always_declare_return_types` have been improved
+* `prefer_final_fields ` has been fixed to work with classes that have generic type arguments
+* (internal): deprecated code has been cleaned up
+* false positives in `unrelated_type_equality_checks` have been fixed
+
+In addition, `prefer_bool_in_asserts` has been deprecated as its semantics are
+redundant with Dart 2 checks and experimental lints `avoid_positional_boolean_parameters`,
+`literal_only_boolean_expressions`, `prefer_foreach`, `prefer_void_to_null` have all been
+promoted to stable.
