----------------------------
Version 6.3:
* Major changes compared to the previous version:
- Backout of
patch #8380: adds 500k 1M 2M baud to ser_posix.c
It broke the functionality in too many situations
(bug #46610/46483)
* New devices supported:
- ATmega48PB, ATmega88PB, ATmega168PB
- ATtiny28 (HVPP-only device)
* New programmers supported:
- Atmel mEDBG: xplainedmini, xplainedmini_dw
* Bugfixes
- bug #46610: Floating point exception (core dumped) arch linux rpi2
- bug #46483: version 6.2. ser_open(): can't set attributes for device
- patch #8435: Implementing mEDBG CMSIS-DAP protocol
- patch #8735: ATtiny28 support in avrdude.conf
- patch #8896: Silence cppcheck warnings in 6.2 code
- patch #8895: Spelling in 6.2 code
Version 6.2:
* Major changes compared to the previous version:
- The stk500v2 implementation now uses its own higher-level
command implementation for byte-wide access, rather than the
historic SPI_MULTI command where all the low-level ISP
implementation had to be assembled manually inside AVRDUDE. In
addition to the traditional STK500, this implementation is also
used by all the more modern Atmel tools (AVRISPmkII, JTAGICEmkII
in ISP mode, STK600 in ISP mode).
- The -B option can be suffixed with "Hz", "kHz", or "MHz", in
order to specify a bitclock frequency rather than period.
- Print part id after signature (patch #8440 )
- buspirate: Also support "cpufreq" extended parameter
in binary mode (patch #8504 )
- The "-P net:" syntax (forwarding of serial data over TCP) is now
also implemented for Win32 systems.
- Allow for arbitrary serial baudrates under Linux (OSX and *BSD
could already handle it).
* New devices supported:
- AT90PWM216 (bug #42310: New part description for AT90PWM216)
- ATmega32M1 (patch #7694 Add support for the atmega32m1)
* New programmers supported:
- ftdi_syncbb
+ uncompatino, ttl232r (FTDI TTL232R-5V with ICSP adapter)
(patch #8529 2 more ftdi_syncbb devices)
* Bugfixes

- bug #42267: jtag3isp fails to read lock and fuse bytes directly
after changing lock byte
- bug #41561: AVRDUDE 6.0.1/USBasp doesn't write first bytes of
flash page
- bug #43078: AVRDUDE crashes after sucessfully reading/writing eeprom
- bug #43137: Writing and reading incorrect pages when using jtagicemkI
- bug #40870: config nitpick: ATtiny25/45/85 have 1 calibration byte not 2
- bug #42908: no external reset at JTAGICE3
- patch #8437: [PATCH] Serial-over-ethernet for Win32
- bug #44717: avrdude creates empty flash dump
* Internals:
- Removing exit calls from config parser
- bug #42662 clang warnings under FreeBSD 10.x
----------------------------------------------------------------------
* Major changes compared to the previous version:
- Atmel EDBG protocol support added (JTAGICE3, XplainedPro, Atmel-ICE)
* New programmers supported:
- Atmel DFU, using FLIP protocol version 1 (AT90USB and ATmega*U* devices),
or version 2 (Xmega devices)
- Atmel-ICE (ARM/AVR), JTAG, PDI, debugWIRE, ISP modi
* Bugfixes
- bug #40055: AVRDUDE segfaults when writing eeprom
- bug #40085: Typo fix in fuses report (for 6.1-svn-20130917)
- bug #40782: Verify errors for object size > 16 k on x32e5 due
to typo in avrdude.conf
- bug #40817: Elf file support (possibly) not working on 6.0.1 windows build
- bug #40897: AT Mega2560 not correctly programmed with stk500(v1)
ISP (solution patch)
- bug #41357: OS X: Avrdude messes with the usb stack?

- patch #7896: DFU FLIPv2 programming support
- patch #XXXX: xxx
* Internals:

Significant enhancements in this version are:
o Support for JTAGICE MkII device
o New devices supported:
- AT90CAN128 ...
o Support for STK500 Version 2 Protocol
(the latter being the principal reason for the update, as the recent
firmware on the STK500 development boards requires protocol version 2)
