 Basically that's it. But you can configure the plugin depending on your needs. Take a look at the next section.
 
 ### Configure the plugin

-    referenceFile = new File(projectDir, "manifest/original.xml")
-    htmlDiffFile = new File(projectDir, "manifest-diff.html")

     }
 }
 ```
 
+First of all there is a `defaultConfig` section which sets up the default configuration being used for all build
+variants. It has the following parameters:
+
+* `enabled` - whether plugin is enabled or not. When plugin is disable it does nothing.
 * `compareOnAssemble` - whether manifest comparison is done automatically on every project assembly. 
   Default value is `true` while `false` means you have to invoke task `compare${VARIANT_NAME}MergedManifest` manually. 
   For example `compareDebugMergedManifest`.

+If you would like to make a different configuration for some particular build variant then `guardVariant()` can help

+## Migration
+
+### From 0.x.x to 1.x.x
+
+Release 1.0.0 introduces new way of configuring the plugin. Now the plugin has a default configuration placed inside
+`defaultConfig` section but it also allows you to configure the plugin on per-variant base using `guardVariant()`.
+
+So the easiest way to migrate is to change the following configuration inside `build.gradle` file:
+```groovy
+manifestGuard {
+    compareOnAssemble = false
+    referenceFile = new File(projectDir, "manifest/original.xml")
+    htmlDiffFile = new File(projectDir, "manifest-diff.html")
+    ignore {
+        ignoreAppVersionChanges true
+    }
+}
+```
+to
+```groovy
+manifestGuard {
+    defaultConfig {
+        compareOnAssemble = false
+        referenceFile = new File(projectDir, "manifest/original.xml")
+        htmlDiffFile = new File(projectDir, "manifest-diff.html")
+        ignore {
+            ignoreAppVersionChanges = true
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+Please notice that properties inside `ignore` block now require `=`.
