 ## Changelog
 
+### 0.5 - 2023-12-10
+
+* `Client`:
+  * Support binary request data automatically based on input type, eg `dict` vs `bytes`.
+  * Add new `headers` kwarg to `call` and auto-generated lexicon method calls, useful for providing an explicit `Content-Type` when sending binary data.
+  * Bug fix: don't infinite loop if `refreshSession` fails.
+  * Other minor authentication bug fixes.
+
 ### 0.4 - 2023-10-28
 
 * Bundle [the official lexicons](https://github.com/bluesky-social/atproto/tree/main/lexicons/) for `app.bsky` and `com.atproto`, use them by default.
