+pytest-xdist 2.2.1 (2021-02-09)
+===============================
+
+Bug Fixes
+---------
+
+- `#623 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/623>`_: Gracefully handle the pending deprecation of Node.fspath by using config.rootpath for topdir.
+
+
+pytest-xdist 2.2.0 (2020-12-14)
+===============================
+
+Features
+--------
+
+- `#608 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/608>`_: Internal errors in workers are now propagated to the master node.
+
+
+pytest-xdist 2.1.0 (2020-08-25)
+===============================
+
+Features
+--------
+
+- `#585 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/585>`_: New ``pytest_xdist_auto_num_workers`` hook can be implemented by plugins or ``conftest.py`` files to control the number of workers when ``--numprocesses=auto`` is given in the command-line.
+
+
+Trivial Changes
+---------------
+
+- `#585 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/585>`_: ``psutil`` has proven to make ``pytest-xdist`` installation in certain platforms and containers problematic, so to use it for automatic number of CPUs detection users need to install the ``psutil`` extra::
+
+      pip install pytest-xdist[psutil]
+
+
+pytest-xdist 2.0.0 (2020-08-12)
+===============================
+
+Deprecations and Removals
+-------------------------
+
+- `#541 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/541>`_: Drop backward-compatibility "slave" aliases related to worker nodes.  We deliberately moved away from this terminology years ago, and it seems like the right time to finish the deprecation and removal process.
+
+- `#569 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/569>`_: ``pytest-xdist`` no longer supports Python 2.7.
+
+
+Features
+--------
+
+- `#504 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/504>`_: New functions ``xdist.is_xdist_worker``, ``xdist.is_xdist_master``, ``xdist.get_xdist_worker_id``, to easily identify the current node.
+
+
+Bug Fixes
+---------
+
+- `#471 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/471>`_: Fix issue with Rsync reporting in quiet mode.
+
+- `#553 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/553>`_: When using ``-n auto``, count the number of physical CPU cores instead of logical ones.
+
+
+Trivial Changes
+---------------
+
+- `#541 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/541>`_: ``pytest-xdist`` now requires ``pytest>=6.0``.
+
+
+pytest-xdist 1.34.0 (2020-07-27)
+================================
+
+Features
+--------
+
+- `#549 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/549>`_: Make ``--pdb`` imply ``--dist no``, as the two options cannot really work together at the moment.
+
+
+Bug Fixes
+---------
+
+- `#478 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/478>`_: Fix regression with duplicated arguments via $PYTEST_ADDOPTS in 1.30.0.
+
+- `#558 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/558>`_: Fix ``rsyncdirs`` usage with pytest 6.0.
+
+- `#562 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/562>`_: Do not trigger the deprecated ``pytest_warning_captured`` in pytest 6.0+.
+

+pytest-xdist 1.33.0 (2020-07-09)
+================================
+
+Features
+--------
+
+- `#554 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/issues/554>`_: Fix warnings support for upcoming pytest 6.0.
+
+
+Trivial Changes
