Important

This documentation covers IPython versions 6.0 and higher. Beginning with version 6.0, IPython stopped supporting compatibility with Python versions lower than 3.3 including all versions of Python 2.7.

If you are looking for an IPython version compatible with Python 2.7, please use the IPython 5.x LTS release and refer to its documentation (LTS is the long term support release).

# 0.8 series

## Release 0.8.4

This was a quick release to fix an unfortunate bug that slipped into the 0.8.3 release. The `--twisted` option was disabled, as it turned out to be broken across several platforms.

## Release 0.8.3

- pydb is now disabled by default (due to %run -d problems). You can enable it by passing -pydb command line argument to IPython. Note that setting it in config file won’t work.

## Release 0.8.2

- %pushd/%popd behave differently; now “pushd /foo” pushes CURRENT directory and jumps to /foo. The current behaviour is closer to the documented behaviour, and should not trip anyone.

## Older releases

Changes in earlier releases of IPython are described in the older file `ChangeLog`. Please refer to this document for details.
