Major New Features
------------------
+Potentially Breaking Changes
+----------------------------
+
+- Removed :program:`clang-tidy`'s global options `IgnoreMacros` and
+ `StrictMode`, which were documented as deprecated since
+ :program:`clang-tidy-20`. Users should use the check-specific options of the
+ same name instead.
+
+- Renamed :program:`clang-tidy`'s option name of check
+ :doc:`bugprone-easily-swappable-parameters
+ <clang-tidy/checks/bugprone/easily-swappable-parameters>` from
+ ``NamePrefixSuffixSilenceDissimilarityTreshold`` to
+ ``NamePrefixSuffixSilenceDissimilarityThreshold``,
+ correcting a spelling mistake.
