 Bugfix: Update zstd library to fix possible data corruption at max. compression
 
-In restic 0.16.0, backups using maximum compression could result in data
-corruption due to a bug in the library used for compressing data. Please note
-that the "auto" compression level (used by default) is not affected!
-
-To check a repository for data corruption, run `restic check --read-data`. This
-will download and verify the whole repository. If the `check` command detects
-data corruption, follow the suggested steps. To simplify the repository repair
-and minimize data loss, we've also added an experimental `repair packs` command
-that salvages all valid data from the affected pack files.
+In restic 0.16.0, backups where the compression level was set to `max` (using
+`--compression max`) could in rare and very specific circumstances result in
+data corruption due to a bug in the library used for compressing data.
 
 Restic now uses the latest version of the library used to compress data, which

+includes a fix for this issue. Please note that the `auto` compression level
+(which restic uses by default) was never affected, and even if you used `max`
+compression, chances of being affected by this issue were very small.

+To check a repository for any corruption, run `restic check --read-data`. This
+will download and verify the whole repository and can be used at any time to
+completely verify the integrity of a repository. If the `check` command detects
+anomalies, follow the suggested steps.
+
+To simplify any needed repository repair and minimize data loss, there is also
+a new and experimental `repair packs` command that salvages all valid data from
+the affected pack files (see `restic help repair packs` for more information).

 Enhancement: Allow setting REST password and username via environment variables
 
-Previously, it was only possible to specify the REST server username and
-password in the repository URL, or using the `--repository-file` option. This
-meant it was not possible to use authentication in contexts where the
-repository URL is stored in publicly accessible way. Restic now allows setting
-the username and password using the `RESTIC_REST_USERNAME` and
-`RESTIC_REST_PASSWORD` variables.
