+1.3.0
+=====
+This new minor release now enables `i128` support automatically on Rust
+compilers that support 128-bit integers. The `i128` feature is now a no-op, but
+continues to exist for backward compatibility purposes. The crate continues to
+maintain compatibility with Rust 1.12.0.
+
+This release also deprecates the `ByteOrder` trait methods
+`read_f32_into_unchecked` and `read_f64_into_unchecked` in favor of
+`read_f32_into` and `read_f64_into`. This was an oversight from the 1.2 release
+where the corresponding methods on `ReadBytesExt` were deprecated.
+
+`quickcheck` and `rand` were bumped to `0.8` and `0.6`, respectively.
+
+A few small documentation related bugs have been fixed.
+
+
+1.2.7
+=====
+This patch release excludes some CI files from the crate release and updates
+the license field to use `OR` instead of `/`.
+
+
+1.2.6
+=====
+This patch release fixes some test compilation errors introduced by an
+over-eager release of 1.2.5.
+
+
+1.2.5
+=====
+This patch release fixes some typos in the docs, adds doc tests to methods on
+`WriteByteExt` and bumps the quickcheck dependency to `0.7`.
+
+
+1.2.4
+=====
+This patch release adds support for 48-bit integers by adding the following
+methods to the `ByteOrder` trait: `read_u48`, `read_i48`, `write_u48` and
+`write_i48`. Corresponding methods have been added to the `ReadBytesExt` and
+`WriteBytesExt` traits as well.
+
+
+1.2.3
+=====
+This patch release removes the use of `feature(i128_type)` from byteorder,
+since it has been stabilized. We leave byteorder's `i128` feature in place
+in order to continue supporting compilation on older versions of Rust.
+
+
+1.2.2
+=====
+This patch release only consists of internal improvements and refactorings.
+Notably, this removes all uses of `transmute` and instead uses pointer casts.
+
+
+1.2.1
+=====
+This patch release removes more unnecessary uses of `unsafe` that
+were overlooked in the prior `1.2.0` release. In particular, the
+`ReadBytesExt::read_{f32,f64}_into_checked` methods have been deprecated and
+replaced by more appropriately named `read_{f32,f64}_into` methods.
+
+
+1.2.0
+=====
+The most prominent change in this release of `byteorder` is the removal of
+unnecessary signaling NaN masking, and in turn, the `unsafe` annotations
+associated with methods that didn't do masking. See
+[#103](https://github.com/BurntSushi/byteorder/issues/103)
+for more details.
+
+* [BUG #102](https://github.com/BurntSushi/byteorder/issues/102):
+  Fix big endian tests.
+* [BUG #103](https://github.com/BurntSushi/byteorder/issues/103):
+  Remove sNaN masking.
+
+
+1.1.0
+=====
+This release of `byteorder` features a number of fixes and improvements, mostly
+as a result of the
+[Litz Blitz evaluation](https://public.etherpad-mozilla.org/p/rust-crate-eval-byteorder).
+
+Feature enhancements:
+
+* [FEATURE #63](https://github.com/BurntSushi/byteorder/issues/63):
+  Add methods for reading/writing slices of numbers for a specific
+  endianness.
+* [FEATURE #65](https://github.com/BurntSushi/byteorder/issues/65):
+  Add support for `u128`/`i128` types. (Behind the nightly only `i128`
+  feature.)
+* [FEATURE #72](https://github.com/BurntSushi/byteorder/issues/72):
+  Add "panics" and "errors" sections for each relevant public API item.
+* [FEATURE #74](https://github.com/BurntSushi/byteorder/issues/74):
+  Add CI badges to Cargo.toml.
+* [FEATURE #75](https://github.com/BurntSushi/byteorder/issues/75):
+  Add more examples to public API items.
+* Add 24-bit read/write methods.
+* Add `BE` and `LE` type aliases for `BigEndian` and `LittleEndian`,
+  respectively.
+
+Bug fixes:
+
+* [BUG #68](https://github.com/BurntSushi/byteorder/issues/68):
+  Panic in {BigEndian,LittleEndian}::default.
+* [BUG #69](https://github.com/BurntSushi/byteorder/issues/69):
+  Seal the `ByteOrder` trait to prevent out-of-crate implementations.
+* [BUG #71](https://github.com/BurntSushi/byteorder/issues/71):
+  Guarantee that the results of `read_f32`/`read_f64` are always defined.
+* [BUG #73](https://github.com/BurntSushi/byteorder/issues/73):
+  Add crates.io categories.
+* [BUG #77](https://github.com/BurntSushi/byteorder/issues/77):
+  Add `html_root` doc attribute.

+This crate provides convenience methods for encoding and decoding

+
+
+### Documentation
+
+https://docs.rs/byteorder
+
+
+### Installation
+
+This crate works with Cargo and is on
+[crates.io](https://crates.io/crates/byteorder). Add it to your `Cargo.toml`
+like so:
+
+```toml
+[dependencies]
+byteorder = "1"
+```
+
+If you want to augment existing `Read` and `Write` traits, then import the
+extension methods like so:
+
+```rust
+extern crate byteorder;
+
+use byteorder::{ReadBytesExt, WriteBytesExt, BigEndian, LittleEndian};
+```
+
+For example:
+
+```rust
+use std::io::Cursor;
+use byteorder::{BigEndian, ReadBytesExt};
+
+let mut rdr = Cursor::new(vec![2, 5, 3, 0]);
+// Note that we use type parameters to indicate which kind of byte order
+// we want!
+assert_eq!(517, rdr.read_u16::<BigEndian>().unwrap());
+assert_eq!(768, rdr.read_u16::<BigEndian>().unwrap());
+```
+
+### `no_std` crates
+
+This crate has a feature, `std`, that is enabled by default. To use this crate
+in a `no_std` context, add the following to your `Cargo.toml`:
+
+```toml
+[dependencies]
+byteorder = { version = "1", default-features = false }
+```
+
+
+### Alternatives
+
+Note that as of Rust 1.32, the standard numeric types provide built-in methods
+like `to_le_bytes` and `from_le_bytes`, which support some of the same use
+cases.

+/*!
+This crate provides convenience methods for encoding and decoding numbers in
+either [big-endian or little-endian order].
+
+The organization of the crate is pretty simple. A trait, [`ByteOrder`], specifies
+byte conversion methods for each type of number in Rust (sans numbers that have
+a platform dependent size like `usize` and `isize`). Two types, [`BigEndian`]
+and [`LittleEndian`] implement these methods. Finally, [`ReadBytesExt`] and
+[`WriteBytesExt`] provide convenience methods available to all types that
+implement [`Read`] and [`Write`].
+
+An alias, [`NetworkEndian`], for [`BigEndian`] is provided to help improve
+code clarity.
+
+An additional alias, [`NativeEndian`], is provided for the endianness of the
+local platform. This is convenient when serializing data for use and
+conversions are not desired.
+
+# Examples
+
+Read unsigned 16 bit big-endian integers from a [`Read`] type:
+
+```rust
+use std::io::Cursor;
+use byteorder::{BigEndian, ReadBytesExt};
+
+let mut rdr = Cursor::new(vec![2, 5, 3, 0]);
+// Note that we use type parameters to indicate which kind of byte order
+// we want!
+assert_eq!(517, rdr.read_u16::<BigEndian>().unwrap());
+assert_eq!(768, rdr.read_u16::<BigEndian>().unwrap());
+```
+
+Write unsigned 16 bit little-endian integers to a [`Write`] type:
+
+```rust
+use byteorder::{LittleEndian, WriteBytesExt};
+
+let mut wtr = vec![];
+wtr.write_u16::<LittleEndian>(517).unwrap();
+wtr.write_u16::<LittleEndian>(768).unwrap();
+assert_eq!(wtr, vec![5, 2, 0, 3]);
+```
+
+# Optional Features
+
+This crate optionally provides support for 128 bit values (`i128` and `u128`)
+when built with the `i128` feature enabled.
+
+This crate can also be used without the standard library.
+
+# Alternatives
+
+Note that as of Rust 1.32, the standard numeric types provide built-in methods
+like `to_le_bytes` and `from_le_bytes`, which support some of the same use
+cases.

+/// `ByteOrder` describes types that can serialize integers as bytes.
+///
+/// Note that `Self` does not appear anywhere in this trait's definition!
+/// Therefore, in order to use it, you'll need to use syntax like
+/// `T::read_u16(&[0, 1])` where `T` implements `ByteOrder`.
+///
+/// This crate provides two types that implement `ByteOrder`: [`BigEndian`]
+/// and [`LittleEndian`].
+/// This trait is sealed and cannot be implemented for callers to avoid
+/// breaking backwards compatibility when adding new derived traits.
+///
+/// # Examples
+///
+/// Write and read `u32` numbers in little endian order:
+///
+/// ```rust
+/// use byteorder::{ByteOrder, LittleEndian};
+///
+/// let mut buf = [0; 4];
+/// LittleEndian::write_u32(&mut buf, 1_000_000);
+/// assert_eq!(1_000_000, LittleEndian::read_u32(&buf));
+/// ```
+///
+/// Write and read `i16` numbers in big endian order:
+///
+/// ```rust
+/// use byteorder::{ByteOrder, BigEndian};
+///
+/// let mut buf = [0; 2];
+/// BigEndian::write_i16(&mut buf, -5_000);
