+## New `vs2012` and `vs2013` backend options
+
+Adds the ability to generate Visual Studio 2012 and 2013 projects. This is an
+extension to the existing Visual Studio 2010 projects so that it is no longer
+required to manually upgrade the generated Visual Studio 2010 projects.
+
+Generating Visual Studio 2010 projects has also been fixed since its developer
+command prompt does not provide a `%VisualStudioVersion%` envvar.
+
+## Developer environment
+
+Expand the support for the `link_whole:` project option for pre-Visual Studio 2015
+Update 2, where previously Visual Studio 2015 Update 2 or later was required for
+this, for the Ninja backend as well as the vs2010 (as well as the newly-added
+vs2012 and vs2013 backends).
