+v2.9.1 (2026-10-24)
+-------------------
+
+A bugfix release for the tree and blame pages, whose line numbers had drifted
+away from the code since v2.0.0 in Safari and in every browser on a typical
+Linux desktop, until the code sat dozens of lines below its number at the end
+of a long file.
+
+Added
+.....
+
+* A character a browser would start a new line at, though git does not, is
+  shown as an escape sequence in span.escape on the tree and blame pages and
+  by the syntax highlighter: a carriage return with no line feed after it, a
+  vertical tab, a form feed, next line and the Unicode line and paragraph
+  separators.
+
+Changed
+.......
+
+* Patches end with the cgit version again, written as git writes its own, so
+  this release signs them "cgit 2.9.1". The footer and the generator tag still
+  carry no version.
+
+Fixed
+.....
+
+* The code beside the line numbers was set in the browser's own monospace
+  font, which made each of its lines a little taller than its number, by a
+  pixel in Safari and on Linux, so the two columns drifted apart down every
+  file.
+* A lone carriage return started an extra line in every browser, and U+2028
+  and U+2029 did in Safari, each pushing every later line below its number.
+* The line highlight sat a pixel low, covered only the digits of each number,
+  and ended at the edge of the view on a file scrolled sideways.
+* Code in a readme took the browser's own monospace font, Courier in Chrome
+  and Safari, rather than the theme's --font-mono.
