+## 2.1.1-wip
+
+- Require Dart 3.4
+
+## 2.1.0
+
+- Adds `minVersion` to `findPackageConfig` and `findPackageConfigVersion`
+  which allows ignoring earlier versions (which currently only means
+  ignoring version 1, aka. `.packages` files.)
+
+- Changes the version number of `SimplePackageConfig.empty` to the
+  current maximum version.
+
+- Improve file read performance; improve lookup performance.
+- Emit an error when a package is inside the package root of another package.
+- Fix a link in the readme.
+
+## 2.0.2
+
+- Update package description and README.
+- Change to package:lints for style checking.
+- Add an example.
+
+## 2.0.1
+
+- Use unique library names to correct docs issue.
+
+## 2.0.0
+
+- Migrate to null safety.
+- Remove legacy APIs.
+- Adds `relativeRoot` property to `Package` which controls whether to
+  make the root URI relative when writing a configuration file.
+
+## 1.9.3
+
+- Fix `Package` constructor not accepting relative `packageUriRoot`.
+
+## 1.9.2
+
+- Updated to support new rules for picking `package_config.json` over
+  a specified `.packages`.
+- Deduce package root from `.packages` derived package configuration,
+  and default all such packages to language version 2.7.
+
+## 1.9.1
+
+- Remove accidental transitive import of `dart:io` from entrypoints that are
+  supposed to be cross-platform compatible.
+
+## 1.9.0
+
+- Based on new JSON file format with more content.
+- This version includes all the new functionality intended for a 2.0.0
+  version, as well as the, now deprecated, version 1 functionality.
+  When we release 2.0.0, the deprecated functionality will be removed.
+
+## 1.1.0
+
+- Allow parsing files with default-package entries and metadata.
+  A default-package entry has an empty key and a valid package name
+  as value.
+  Metadata is attached as fragments to base URIs.
+
+## 1.0.5
+
+- Fix usage of SDK constants.
+
+## 1.0.4
+
+- Set max SDK version to <3.0.0.
+
+## 1.0.3
+
+- Removed unneeded dependency constraint on SDK.
+
+## 1.0.2
+
+- Update SDK constraint to be 2.0.0 dev friendly.
+
+## 1.0.1
+
+- Fix test to not write to sink after it's closed.
+
+## 1.0.0
+
+- Public API marked stable.
+
+## 0.1.5
+
+- `FilePackagesDirectoryPackages.getBase(..)` performance improvements.
+
+## 0.1.4
+
+- Strong mode fixes.
+
+## 0.1.3
+
+- Invalid test cleanup (to keep up with changes in `Uri`).
+
+## 0.1.1
+
+- Syntax updates.
+
+## 0.1.0
+
+- Initial implementation.

+need to be sure of various other things—for instance that you'll tell us if you
+know that your code infringes on other people's patents. You don't have to sign
+the CLA until after you've submitted your code for review and a member has
+approved it, but you must do it before we can put your code into our codebase.
+
+Before you start working on a larger contribution, you should get in touch with
+us first through the issue tracker with your idea so that we can help out and
+possibly guide you. Coordinating up front makes it much easier to avoid
+frustration later on.

+[![pub package](https://img.shields.io/pub/v/package_config.svg)](https://pub.dev/packages/package_config)
+[![package publisher](https://img.shields.io/pub/publisher/package_config.svg)](https://pub.dev/packages/package_config/publisher)
+
+Support for working with **Package Configuration** files as described
+in the Package Configuration v2 [design document](https://github.com/dart-lang/language/blob/master/accepted/2.8/language-versioning/package-config-file-v2.md).
+
+A Dart package configuration file is used to resolve Dart package names (e.g.
+`foobar`) to Dart files containing the source code for that package (e.g.
+`file:///Users/myuser/.pub-cache/hosted/pub.dartlang.org/foobar-1.1.0`). The
+standard package configuration file is `.dart_tool/package_config.json`, and is
+written by the Dart tool when the command `dart pub get` is run.
+
+The primary libraries of this package are
+* `package_config.dart`:
+    Defines the `PackageConfig` class and other types needed to use
+    package configurations, and provides functions to find, read and
+    write package configuration files.
+
+* `package_config_types.dart`:
+    Just the `PackageConfig` class and other types needed to use
+    package configurations. This library does not depend on `dart:io`.
+
+The package includes deprecated backwards compatible functionality to
+work with the `.packages` file. This functionality will not be maintained,
+and will be removed in a future version of this package.
