+## Recent Changes
+
+### In Hauler v1.2.0...
+
+- Upgraded the `apiVersion` to `v1` from `v1alpha1`
+  - Users are able to use `v1` and `v1alpha1`, but `v1alpha1` is now deprecated and will be removed in a future release. We will update the community when we fully deprecate and remove the functionality of `v1alpha1`
+  - Users will see logging notices when using the old `apiVersion` such as...
+  - `!!! DEPRECATION WARNING !!! apiVersion [v1alpha1] will be removed in a future release !!! DEPRECATION WARNING !!!`
+---
+- Updated the behavior of `hauler store load` to default to loading a `haul` with the name of `haul.tar.zst` and requires the flag of `--filename/-f` to load a `haul` with a different name
+- Users can load multiple `hauls` by specifying multiple flags of `--filename/-f`
+  - updated command usage: `hauler store load --filename hauling-hauls.tar.zst`
+  - previous command usage (do not use): `hauler store load hauling-hauls.tar.zst`
+---
+- Updated the behavior of `hauler store sync` to default to syncing a `manifest` with the name of `hauler-manifest.yaml` and requires the flag of `--filename/-f` to sync a `manifest` with a different name
+- Users can sync multiple `manifests` by specifying multiple flags of `--filename/-f`
+  - updated command usage: `hauler store sync --filename hauling-hauls-manifest.yaml`
+  - previous command usage (do not use): `hauler store sync --files hauling-hauls-manifest.yaml`
+---
+Please review the documentation for any additional [Known Limits, Issues, and Notices](https://docs.hauler.dev/docs/known-limits)!
