 # CHANGELOG
 
+## [0.4.0] - 2018-02-02
+### Added
+- Search for MRs and Issues. Supports basic and advanced search.
+  - For basic search, just type anything and hit Enter. Extension will search in title and description fields of MRs and issues.
+  - For advanced search, you can use multiple tokens to search issues and MRs where tokens can be `title`, `author`, `assignee`, `labels`, `label`, `milestone`, `state`, `scope`. Some example usages:
+    - discussions refactor
+    - title: discussions refactor author: fatihacet labels: frontend, performance milestone: 10.5
+    - title: group labels author: annabeldunstone assignee: timzallmann label: frontend
+- Added closing issue link of current MR to status bar and clicking it will open related issue on GitLab.
+- Added MIT License
+
+### Changed
+- Pipeline not found text on status bar will be hidden if there is no GL project.
+- Significantly reduced timing of opening current MR from status bar.
+
+
 ## [0.3.4] - 2018-02-01
 ### Fixed
 - [#12](https://gitlab.com/fatihacet/gitlab-vscode-extension/issues/12) Fix fetching git remote and tracking branch names.
