+Overview of changes in GLib 2.63.0
+==================================
+
+* Add g_fsync() API (#35)
+
+* Fix regression in g_file_copy() when passing
+  `G_FILE_COPY_TARGET_DEFAULT_PERMS` flag; the destination permissions would be
+  private rather than following the process’ umask (!1142)
+
+* Several `GDateTime` parsing fixes (!1127)
+
+* Always build the tests if installed-tests are enabled, so that the tests can
+  actually be installed (!1141)
+
+* Rework atomic function implementations to use memory barrier in the correct
+  place (when compiler intrinsics aren’t providing the atomics), and fix
+  signedness issues (#1449, #1565)
+
+* Use the OS’ `fdwalk()` function (if safe) to speed up `g_spawn_*()` on BSD (#1638)
+
+* Remove the macOS `dyld` `GModule` implementation in favour of `dl` instead (!1093)
+
+* Bump Python requirement to ≥ 3.5, which we implicitly relied on anyway through
+  our Meson dependency (!1132)
