The changes since the pre-release (v0.6.0-rc1) are:

* add -Wbitwise-pointer to warn on casts to/from bitwise pointers
* beautify how types are displayed:
* no more <noident> 
* no more redundant type specifiers
* remove double space
* some cleanup of the build system:
* only need includedir from llvm-config
* check if sparse-llvm needs libc++
* remove -finline-functions from CFLAGS
* some random cleanup:
* remove unneeded declarations in "compat.h"
* remove unused arg in add_branch()
* allocate BBs after the guards
* remove redundant check of _Bool bitsize
* remove unused regno()
* remove self-assignment of base_type
* some documentation:
* update comment for struct-expression::cast_expression
* fix list formatting in inline doc
* document that identifiers are now OK for address spaces
* add TODO list.

The main changes since the previous release (v0.5.2) are:

* by default, disable warnings about unknown attributes
* no more warnings about sizeof(void) unless -Wpointer-arith is given
* add support for __has_attribute() & __has_builtin()
* many fixes for type evaluation/checking
* the build should be more friendly for distros
* a huge number of testcases have been added to the testsuite
* the handling of cast instructions has been completely revamped
* the SSA conversion has been is now corrected and has been rewritten with a variant of the classical algorithm
* documentation is now handled with Sphinx and inline doc is extracted from the code.
* online documentation can be found at https://sparse-doc.readthedocs.io/en/master/

A more complete list of changes is:

* add predefined macros for __INTMAX_TYPE__, __INT_MAX__, ...
* prepare to identify & display the address spaces by name
* fix linearization of non-constant switch-cases

* manpage: add AUTHORS section
* fixes for -dD
* add support for -dM
* remove more complex phi-nodes
* fix linearization/SSA when missing a return

* consolidate instruction's properties into an opcode table
* fix: do not optimize away accesses to volatile bitfields
* support mode(__pointer__) and mode(__byte__)
* do 'classical' SSA conversion (via the iterated dominance frontier).
* fix buggy recursion in kill_dead_stores()
* kill dead stores again after memops simplification is done.
* simplify TRUNC((x & M') | y, N)
* simplify AND(SHIFT(a | b, S), M)
* simplify TRUNC(SHIFT(a | b, S), N)

* give a correct & sensible warning on negative or over-sized shifts.
* add conservative simplification of such shifts.
* do not optimize the meaningless shift:

    * any shift with a negative count
    * OP_ASRs with an over-sized shift count.

* try to give a correct negative/too-big error message during simplification.
* simplify chains of shifts.
* simplify ZEXT + ASR into ZEXT + LSR
* cse: try the next pair instead of keeping the first instruction
* cse: compare casts only by kind a size, not by C type.
* optimize away OP_UTPTR & OP_PTRTU which are nops.
* cleanup of list walking macros:

    * make untagged pointers the normal case
    * use structurally equivalent struct for all pointer lists to avoid needless casting to and fro struct ptrlist
    * simplify PREPARE/NEXT/RESET logic by using common PTR_NEXT()

* add validation of the IR.
* improve expansion of builtin dynamic macros (__FILE__, ...)
* add support for __INCLUDE_LEVEL__ & __BASE_FILE__
* improve generation of predefined macros
* add support for builtins doing overflow checking.
* add support for the __has_builtin() macro.
* improve Sphinx doc for IR instructions

    * have those instructions in the index
    * have a nicer presentation of the generated doc thanks to not having to use level-4 headings anymore

* fixes & improvements to the testsuite; mainly:

    * allow to run the testsuite on all the tests of a subdir
    * teach 'format' to directly append to the testcase
    * validate the 'check-...' tags
