 # Changelog
 
+## 0.65.0 (UNRELEASED)
 
-## 0.64.0 (March 2025)
+- Improve {py:func}`qiskit_to_tk` to handle `IfElseOp` (generated by `QuantumCircuit.if_test`) 
+with register conditions. Only conditions on an entire register are supported.
+
+
+## 0.64.0
 
 - Update pytket version requirement to 2.0.1.
