+Breaking Changes
+****************
+
+- The method ``Forge::createTable()`` no longer executes a ``CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS``. If table is not found in ``$db->tableExists($table)`` then ``CREATE TABLE`` is executed.
+- The second parameter ``$ifNotExists`` of ``Forge::_createTable()`` is deprecated. It is no longer used and will be removed in a future release.

+Project Files
+*************
+
+Numerous files in the **project space** (root, app, public, writable) received updates. Due to
+these files being outside of the **system** scope they will not be changed without your intervention.
+There are some third-party CodeIgniter modules available to assist with merging changes to
+the project space: `Explore on Packagist <https://packagist.org/explore/?query=codeigniter4%20updates>`_.
+
+.. note:: Except in very rare cases for bug fixes, no changes made to files for the project space
+    will break your application. All changes noted here are optional until the next major version,
+    and any mandatory changes will be covered in the sections above.
