+- Update to version 1.9
+  * Replacer now adds the Sphinx config namespace to the
+    replacements, meaning that names like ``project``
+    or ``copyright`` may be referenced in the format
+    strings. This feature is particularly useful when
+    coupled with the `jaraco.packaging
+    <https://pypi.org/project/jaraco.packaging>`.sphinx
+    plugin, which supplies a ``package_url``.
+  1.8.2:
+  * Added project description and updated changelog.
+  1.8.1:
+  * Issue #4: Prefer public API of ``app.confdir`` to private
+    API.
+  1.8:
+  * Issue #4: Resolve deterministically the filenames relative to
+    the config file.
+  * *semver deviation*: This change is backward-incompatible
+    for projects that relied on paths relative to the cwd where
+    the cwd was not the directory of the config file.
+
+- Converted to single-spec
