+
+3.34 (2023-07-22)
+-----------------
+
+This release introduces a new :ref:`plugin system <plugins>`, with the ability to install plugins that add commands to the ``sqlite-utils`` CLI tool. (:issue:`567`)
+
+- Documentation describing :ref:`how to build a plugin <plugins_building>`.
+- First plugin hook: :ref:`plugins_hooks_register_commands`, for plugins to add extra commands to ``sqlite-utils``. (:issue:`569`)
+- ``sqlite-utils install -e path-to-directory`` option for installing editable code. This option is useful during the development of a plugin. (:issue:`570`)
+- ``table.create(...)`` method now accepts ``replace=True`` to drop and replace an existing table with the same name, or ``ignore=True`` to silently do nothing if a table already exists with the same name. (:issue:`568`)
+- ``sqlite-utils insert ... --stop-after 10`` option for stopping the insert after a specified number of records. Works for the ``upsert`` command as well. (:issue:`561`)
+- The ``--csv`` and ``--tsv`` modes for ``insert`` now accept a ``--empty-null`` option, which cases empty strings in the CSV file to be stored as ``null`` in the database. (:issue:`563`)
+- New ``db.rename_table(table_name, new_name)`` method for renaming tables. (:issue:`565`)
+- ``sqlite-utils rename-table my.db table_name new_name`` command for renaming tables. (:issue:`565`)
+- The ``table.transform(...)`` method now takes an optional ``keep_table=new_table_name`` parameter, which will cause the original table to be renamed to ``new_table_name`` rather than being dropped at the end of the transformation. (:issue:`571`)
+- Documentation now notes that calling ``table.transform()`` without any arguments will reformat the SQL schema stored by SQLite to be more aesthetically pleasing. (:issue:`564`)
