 Enhancements
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
+* Added versioneer to keep track of version changes instead
+  of manually updating pvlib/version.py. This will aid
+  developers because the version string includes the specific
+  git commit of the library code currently imported.
 
 
 Bug fixes
 ~~~~~~~~~
 
 * Fixes night tare issue in snlinverter. When the DC input power (p_dc)
   to an inverter is below the inversion startup power (Ps0), the model
-  should set the AC output (ac_power) to the night tare value (Pnt). 
+  should set the AC output (ac_power) to the night tare value (Pnt).
   The night tare power indicates the power consumed by the inverter to
   sense PV array voltage. The model was erroneously comparing Ps0 with
   the AC output power (ac_power), rather than the DC input power (p_dc).
 
 * Fixed the azimuth calculation of rotated PV panel in function
   pvlib.tracking.singleaxis(...) so that the results are consistent
   with PVsyst
