 All notable changes to `house-lint` are documented here.
 
+## [0.2.0](https://github.com/NodeJSmith/house-lint/compare/v0.1.2...v0.2.0) (2026-08-23)
+
+### Breaking Changes
+
+- **The default scan now covers the entire project tree, not five hardcoded directories.** Previously `house-lint check` (with no `include` set) only scanned `src`, `tests`, `scripts`, `tools`, and `examples`. It now scans everything under the project root, filtered by `.gitignore` and an expanded built-in exclude list. If you relied on the old implicit scope, set `[tool.house-lint] include` to restore it. (#37)
+- **`house-lint.toml` and `.house-lint.toml` are now recognized as config files**, checked ahead of `pyproject.toml`'s `[tool.house-lint]` table. A file with either of these names that was previously inert in your project is now read as configuration — review its contents before upgrading. (#37)
+
+### Configuration
+
+- Add `extend-select`/`extend-ignore` (CLI flags and TOML keys) to layer additional rules on top of your existing selection, instead of `--select` replacing it wholesale. (#14)
+- Add `per-file-ignores` to silence specific rules for matching files (e.g. `HSL002` under `tests/**`) without disabling them project-wide. (#15)
+- A zero-file scan now explains what to check (no config found, or which `include` list is in effect) instead of silently reporting nothing; `--fail-on-empty` now exits with an error on a zero-file scan instead of exiting 0. (#37)
+- When more than one recognized config file exists at the winning directory, the shadowed file(s) are now named in the output. (#37)
+
+### Discovery
+
+- Nested `.gitignore` files are now honored, matching git's own precedence — a closer `.gitignore`'s negation can override a farther one's ignore. Previously only the root `.gitignore` was read. (#13)
+- Fixed a range of gitignore-matching edge cases — directory-only negations, repeated `**` segments, symlinked ignore files, and patterns reached via explicit paths — to match real `git check-ignore` behavior. (#29)
+
+### Rules
+
+- `HSL101` now ships built-in spec token families, so it produces useful findings without any config. (#28)
+
+### Performance Improvements
+
+- Add per-file result caching (`--cache-dir`, `--no-cache`) so unchanged files skip re-analysis on the next run. (#16)
+- The pre-commit hook now batches all changed files into a single `house-lint` invocation instead of spawning one process per file. (#12)
