The versioned surface is the module together with the container image published to
`ghcr.io/channelfinder/reccaster`. It covers the databases in `db/`, the iocsh
functions the module registers, the installed headers and the library soname, and
the paths and entry point inside the image. A backwards incompatible change to any
of these is a major release. The wire protocol is left out: it is shared with other
implementations, and this repository cannot version it alone.

## [Unreleased]

## [2.0.0] - 2026-08-07

First release carrying changes made since reccaster left the recsync repository,
and the first under Semantic Versioning. The releases up to 1.9.6 describe source
from the combined repository.

The build paths inside the container image moved from `/recsync` to `/reccaster`,
which breaks anything addressing files in the image by absolute path. A startup
script loading `/recsync/dbd/demo.dbd` has to load `/reccaster/dbd/demo.dbd`
instead, and the binaries are now under `/reccaster/bin/$EPICS_HOST_ARCH`. Nothing
in the module itself changed incompatibly; sites building from source are
unaffected. The major version reflects that rename alone. Moving the repository is
not a versioned change.
