Changelog for filepath package

Note: below all FilePath values are unquoted, so \\ really means two backslashes.

2.0.0.0 ????

Implementation of the Abstract FilePath Proposal in user-space as a separate type.

1.4.2.2 Dec 2021

This release is purely a documentation release, fixing the broken haddock links.

Affected users

This release affects users who apply downstream patches to System.FilePath.Internal, since System.FilePath.Posix and System.FilePath.Windows are now generated via make cpp during development.

To make your patch apply, either apply it to System.FilePath.Posix and System.FilePath.Windows instead or run make cpp after applying your patch.
