[ADDED] Sequelize.useInflection method
[FIXED] hasOne throws error on update with a primary key #6069
[FIXED] Model.count gives SQL syntax error when using distinct #4840
[ADDED] Model.count now allow specifying column to count on, use options.col #4442
[ADDED] DEBUG support #2852
[ADDED] Intensive connection logging #851
[FIXED] Only belongsTo uses as to construct foreign key - revert of #5957 introduced in 4.0.0-0
[CHANGED] Sequelize.Promise is now an independent copy of bluebird library #5974

BC breaks:

Range type bounds now default to postgres default [) (inclusive, exclusive), previously was () (exclusive, exclusive)
Only belongsTo uses as to construct foreign key - revert of #5957 introduced in 4.0.0-0
Sequelize uses an independent copy of bluebird library. This means (1) promises returned from Sequelize methods are instances of Sequelize.Promise but not global Bluebird and (2) the CLS patch does not affect global Bluebird.

4.0.0-0

[FIXED] Pass ResourceLock instead of raw connection in MSSQL disconnect handling
[CHANGED] Remove hookValidate in favor of validate with hooks: true | false.
[REMOVED] Support for referencesKey
[CHANGED] Throw if dialect is not provided to the constructor
[CHANGED] Throw bluebird.AggregateError instead of array from bulkCreate when validation fails
[FIXED] $notIn: [] is now converted to NOT IN (NULL) #4859
[FIXED] Add raw support to instance.get() #5815
[ADDED] Compare deletedAt against current timestamp when using paranoid #5880
[FIXED] BIGINT gets truncated #5176

[REMOVED] Support for pool:false
[REMOVED] Default transaction isolation level #5094
[ADDED] Add logging for mysql warnings, observant of the showWarnings option. #5900
[REMOVED] MariaDB dialect
[FIXED] hasOne now prefer aliases to construct foreign key #5247
[CHANGED] instance.equals now only checks primary keys, instead of all attributes.
[REWRITE] Rewrite model and instance to a single class - instance instanceof Model #5924
[REMOVED] Counter cache plugin
[FIXED] All associations now prefer aliases to construct foreign key #5267
[REMOVED] Default transaction auto commit #5094
[REMOVED] Callback support for hooks #5228

BC breaks:

hookValidate removed in favor of validate with hooks: true | false. validate returns a promise which is rejected if validation fails
Removed support for referencesKey, use a references object
Remove default dialect
When bulkCreate is rejected because of validation failure it throws a bluebird.AggregateError instead of an array. This object is an array-like so length and index access will still work, but instanceof array will not
$notIn: [] will now match all rows instead of none
(MySQL) BIGINT now gets converted to string when number is too big
Removed support for pool:false, if you still want to use single connection set pool.max to 1
Removed default REPEATABLE_READ transaction isolation, use config option to explicitly set it
Removed MariaDB dialect - this was just a thin wrapper around MySQL, so using dialect: 'mysql' instead should work with no further changes
instance.equals now provides reference equality (do two instances refer to the same row, i.e. are their primary key(s) equal). Use instance.get() to get and compare all values.
Instances (database rows) are now instances of the model, instead of being a separate class. This means you can replace User.build() with new User() and sequelize.define with User extends Sequelize.Model. See #5924
The counter cache plugin, and consequently the counterCache option for associations has been removed. The plugin is seeking a new maintainer - You can find the code here
All associations type will prefer as when constructing the foreignKey name. You can override this by foreignKey option.
Removed default AUTO COMMIT for transaction. Its only sent if explicitly set by user or required by dialects (like mysql)
Hooks no longer provide a callback - you can return a then-able instead if you are doing async stuff

[BUG] Fixed support for Instance.destroy() and field for postgres.

Backwards compatibility changes

Some of the string error messages for connection errors have been replaced with actual error instances. Checking for connection errors should now be more consistent.

2.0.0-rc3

[FEATURE] Added the possibility of removing multiple associations in 1 call #2338
[FEATURE] Undestroy method for paranoid models #2540
[FEATURE] Support for UPSERT
[BUG] Add support for field named the same as the attribute in reload, bulkCreate and save #2348

[BUG] Model#destroy() now supports field, this also fixes an issue with N:M#removeAssociation and field
[BUG] Customized error message can now be set for unique constraint that was created manually (not with sync, but e.g. with migrations) or that has fields with underscore naming. This was problem at least with postgres before.
[BUG] Fixed a bug where plain objects like { in: [...] } were not properly converted to SQL when combined with a sequelize method (fn, where etc.). Closes #2077
[BUG] Made the default for array search in postgres exact comparison instead of overlap
[BUG] Allow logging from individual functions even though the global logging setting is false. Closes #2571
[BUG] Allow increment/decrement operations when using schemata

[BUG] Fix some issues with findAndCount and include
[INTERNALS] Update inflection dependency to v1.5.2
[REMOVED] Remove query generation syntactic sugar provided by node-sql, as well as the dependency on that module

Backwards compatibility changes

When eager-loading a many-to-many association, the attributes of the through table are now accessible through an attribute named after the through model rather than the through table name singularized. i.e. Task.find({include: Worker}) where the table name for through model TaskWorker is TableTaskWorkers used to produce { Worker: { ..., TableTaskWorker: {...} } }. It now produces { Worker: { ..., TaskWorker: {...} } }. Does not affect models where table name is auto-defined by Sequelize, or where table name is model name pluralized.
When using Model#find() with an order clause, the table name is prepended to the ORDER BY SQL. e.g. ORDER BY Task.id rather than ORDER BY id. The change is to avoid ambiguous column names where there are eager-loaded associations with the same column names. A side effect is that code like Task.findAll( { include: [ User ], order: [ [ 'Users.id', 'ASC' ] ] } ) will now throw an error. This should be achieved with Task.findAll( { include: [ User ], order: [ [ User, 'id', 'ASC' ] ] } ) instead.
Nested HSTORE objects are no longer supported. Use DataTypes.JSON instead.
In PG where: { arr: [1, 2] } where the arr column is an array will now use strict comparison (=) instead of the overlap operator (&&). To obtain the old behaviour, use where: { arr: { overlap: [1, 2] }}
The default fields for Instance#save (when not a new record) is now an intersection of the model attributes and the changed attributes making saves more atomic while still allowing only defined attributes.
Syntactic sugar for query generation was removed. You will no longer be able to call Model.dataset() to generate raw sql queries

2.0.0-rc2

[FEATURE] Added to posibility of using a sequelize object as key in sequelize.where. Also added the option of specifying a comparator
[FEATURE] Added countercache functionality to hasMany associations #2375

2.0.0-rc1

[BUG] Fixed an issue with foreign key object syntax for hasOne and belongsTo
[FEATURE] Added field and name to the object form of foreign key definitions
[FEATURE] Added support for calling Promise.done, thus explicitly ending the promise chain by calling done with no arguments. Done with a function argument still continues the promise chain, to maintain BC.
[FEATURE] Added scope to hasMany association definitions, provides default values to association setters/finders #2268
[FEATURE] We now support transactions that automatically commit/rollback based on the result of the promise chain returned to the callback.
[BUG] Only try to create indexes which don't already exist. Closes #2162
[FEATURE] Hooks are passed options
[FEATURE] Hooks need not return a result - undefined return is interpreted as a resolved promise
[FEATURE] Added find() hooks

Backwards compatibility changes

The fieldName property, used in associations with a foreign key object (A.hasMany(B, { foreignKey: { ... }}), has been renamed to name to avoid confusion with field.
The naming of the join table entry for N:M association getters is now singular (like includes)
Signature of hooks has changed to pass options to all hooks. Any hooks previously defined like Model.beforeCreate(values) now need to be Model.beforeCreate(values, options) etc.
Results returned by hooks are ignored - changes to results by hooks should be made by reference
Model.destroy() signature has been changed from (where, options) to (options), options now take a where parameter.
Model.update() signature has been changed from (values, where, options) to (values, options), options now take a where parameter.
The syntax for Model.findOrBuild has changed, to be more in line with the rest of the library. Model.findOrBuild(where, defaults); becomes Model.findOrBuild({ where: where, defaults: defaults });.

v2.0.0-dev13

We are working our way to the first 2.0.0 release candidate.

[FEATURE] Added to option of setting a timezone offset in the sequelize constructor (timezone option). This timezone is used when initializing a connection (using SET TIME ZONE or equivalent), and when converting a timestamp string from the DB to a JS date with mysql (postgres stores the timezone, so for postgres we rely on what's in the DB).
[FEATURE] Allow setting plural and singular name on the model (options.name in sequelize.define) and in associations (options.as) to circumvent issues with weird pluralization.
[FEATURE] Added support for passing an indexes array in options to sequelize.define. #1485. See API reference for details.
[FEATURE/INTERNALS] Standardized the output from QueryInterface.showIndex.
[FEATURE] Include deleted rows in find #2083
[FEATURE] Make addSingular and addPlural for n:m associations (fx addUser and addUsers now both accept an array or an instance.
[BUG] Hid dottie.transform on raw queries behind a flag (nest) #2064
[BUG] Fixed problems with transaction parameter being removed / not passed on in associations #1789 and #1968
[BUG] Fix problem with minConnections. #2048
[BUG] Fix default scope being overwritten #2087
[BUG] Fixed updatedAt timestamp not being set in bulk create when validate = true. #1962
[INTERNALS] Replaced lingo with inflection
[INTERNALS] Removed underscore.string dependency and moved a couple of helper functions from Utils._ to Utils
[INTERNALS] Update dependencies
- validator 3.2.0 -> 3.16.1
- moment 2.5.0 -> 2.7.0
- generic-pool 2.0.4 -> 2.1.1
- sql 0.35.0 -> 0.39.0
[INTERNALS] Use a transaction inside findOrCreate, and handle unique constraint errors if multiple calls are issues concurrently on the same transaction

Backwards compatibility changes

We are using a new inflection library, which should make pluralization and singularization in general more robust. However, a couple of pluralizations have changed as a result:
- Person is now pluralized as people instead of persons
Accesors for models with underscored names are no longer camel cased automatically. For example, if you have a model with name my_model, and my_other_model.hasMany(my_model), the getter will now be instance_of_my_model.getMy_model instead of .getMyModel.
Removed support for setting sequelize.language. If your model names are not in english, use the name option provided by sequelize.name to defined singular and plural forms for your model.
Model names are now used more verbatim in associations. This means that if you have a model named Task (plural T), or an association specifying { as: 'Task' }, the tasks will be returned as relatedModel.Tasks instead of relatedModel.tasks. For more information and how to mitigate this, see https://github.com/sequelize/sequelize/wiki/Upgrading-to-2.0#inflection-replaces-lingo-and-changes-to-naming-conventions
Removed the freezeAssociations option - use model and assocation names instead to provide the plural form yourself
Removed sequelize.language option (not supported by inflection)
Error handling has been refactored. Code that listens for :
- All Error classes properly inherit from Error and a common SequelizeBaseError base
- Instance Validator returns a single instance of a ValidationError which contains an errors array property. This property contains individual error items for each failed validation.
- ValidationError includes a get(path) method to find all broken validations for a path on an instance. To migrate existing error handling, switch from array indexing to using the get method:
  
  Old: err.validateCustom[0] New: err.get('validateCustom')[0]
The syntax for findOrCreate has changed, to be more in line with the rest of the library. Model.findOrCreate(where, defaults); becomes Model.findOrCreate({ where: where, defaults: defaults });.

v2.0.0-dev12

[FEATURE] You can now return a promise to a hook rather than use a callback
[FEATURE] There is now basic support for assigning a field name to an attribute name: {type: DataTypes.STRING, field: 'full_name'}
[FEATURE] It's now possible to add multiple relations to a hasMany association, modelInstance.addRelations([otherInstanceA, otherInstanceB])
[FEATURE] define() stores models in sequelize.models Object e.g. sequelize.models.MyModel
[FEATURE] The set / add / has methods for associations now allow you to pass the value of a primary key, instead of a full Instance object, like so: user.addTask(15);.
[FEATURE] Support for FOR UPDATE and FOR SHARE statements #1777
[FEATURE] n:m createAssocation now returns the target model instance instead of the join model instance
[FEATURE] Extend the foreignKey option for associations to support a full data type definition, and not just a string
[FEATURE] Extract CLI into separate projects.
[FEATURE] Sqlite now inserts dates with millisecond precision
[FEATURE] Sequelize.VIRTUAL datatype which provides regular attribute functionality (set, get, etc) but never persists to database.
[BUG] An error is now thrown if an association would create a naming conflict between the association and the foreign key when doing eager loading. Closes #1272
[BUG] Fix logging options for sequelize.sync
[BUG] find no longer applies limit: 1 if querying on a primary key, should fix a lot of subquery issues.
[BUG] Transactions now use the pool so you will never go over your pool defined connection limit
[BUG] Fix use of Sequelize.literal in eager loading and when renaming attributes #1916
[BUG] Use the provided name for a unique index if one is given, instead of concating the column names together #1944
[BUG] Create a composite primary key for doubled linked self reference #1891
[INTERNALS] bulkDeleteQuery was removed from the MySQL / abstract query generator, since it was never used internally. Please use deleteQuery instead.

Backwards compatibility changes

Sequelize now returns promises instead of its custom event emitter from most calls. This affects methods that return multiple values (like findOrCreate or findOrInitialize). If your current callbacks do not accept the 2nd success parameter you might be seeing an array as the first param. Either use .spread() for these methods or add another argument to your callback: .success(instance) -> .success(instance, created).
.success()/.done() and any other non promise methods are now deprecated (we will keep the codebase around for a few versions though). on('sql') persists for debugging purposes.
Model association calls (belongsTo/hasOne/hasMany) are no longer chainable. (this is to support being able to pass association references to include rather than model/as combinations)
QueryInterface no longer emits global events. This means you can no longer do things like QueryInterface.on('showAllSchemas', function ...
sequelize.showAllSchemas now returns an array of schemas, instead of an array containinig an array of schemas
sequelize.transaction() now returns a promise rather than a instance of Sequelize.Transaction
bulkCreate, bulkUpdate and bulkDestroy (and aliases) now take both a hooks and an individualHooks option, hooks defines whether or not to run the main hooks, and individualHooks defines whether to run hooks for each instance affected.
It is no longer possible to disable pooling, disable pooling will just result in a 1/1 pool.

v2.0.0-dev11

Caution: This release contains many changes and is highly experimental

[PERFORMANCE] increased build performance when using include, which speeds up findAll etc.
[BUG] Made it possible to use HSTORE both in attribute: HSTORE and attribute: { type: HSTORE } form. Thanks to @tomchentw #1458
[FEATURE] n:m now marks the columns of the through table as foreign keys and cascades them on delete and update by default.
[FEATURE] 1:1 and 1:m marks columns as foreign keys, and sets them to cascade on update and set null on delete. If you are working with an existing DB which does not allow null values, be sure to override those options, or disable them completely by passing constraints: false to your assocation call (M1.belongsTo(M2, { constraints: false})).
[BUG] Removed the hard dependency on pg, allowing users to use pg.js
[BUG] Fixed a bug with foreign keys pointing to attributes that were not integers. Now your primaryKey can be a string, and associations will still work. Thanks to @fixe #1544
[BUG] Fix a case where createdAt timestamp would not be set when updatedAt was disabled Thanks to @fixe #1543
[BUG] Fix a case where timestamps were not being write protected in set when underscored=true. janmeier #1523
[FEATURE/BUG] Prefetching/includes now fully support schemas
[FEATURE] Centralize logging. #1566
[FEATURE/BUG] hstore values are now parsed on find/findAll. Thanks to @nunofgs #1560
[FEATURE] Read cli options from a file. Thanks to @codeinvain #1540

Backwards compatibility changes

The notNull validator has been removed, use the Schema's allowNull property.
All Validation errors now return a sequelize.ValidationError which inherits from Error.
selectedValues has been removed for performance reasons, if you depend on this, please open an issue and we will help you work around it.
foreign keys will now correctly be based on the alias of the model
- if you have any 1:1 relations where both sides use an alias, you'll need to set the foreign key, or they'll each use a different foreign key based on their alias.
foreign keys for non-id primary keys will now be named for the foreign key, i.e. pub_name rather than pub_id
- if you have non-id primary keys you should go through your associations and set the foreignKey option if relying on a incorrect _id foreign key
syncOnAssocation has been removed. It only worked for n:m, and having a synchronous function (hasMany) that invokes an asynchronous function (sync) without returning an emitter does not make a lot of sense. If you (implicitly) depended on this feature, sequelize.sync is your friend. If you do not want to do a full sync, use custom through models for n:m (M1.hasMany(M2, { through: M3})) and sync the through model explicitly.
Join tables will be no longer be paranoid (have a deletedAt timestamp added), even though other models are.
All tables in select queries will now be aliased with the model names to be support schemas. This will affect people stuff like `where: {'table.attribute': value}
