 Breaking Changes:
-- ImDrawList: Fixed rectangles with thick lines (>1.0f) not being as thick as requested. (#2518)
-  If you have custom rendering using thick lines, they will appear thicker now.
+- ImDrawList: Improved algorithm for mitre joints on thick lines, preserving correct thickness
+  up to 90 degrees angles (e.g. rectangles). If you have custom rendering using thick lines,
+  they will appear a little thicker now. (#2518) [@rmitton]
 - Obsoleted GetContentRegionAvailWidth(), use GetContentRegionAvail().x instead.
   Kept inline redirection function.
 - Examples: Vulkan: Added MinImageCount/ImageCount fields in ImGui_ImplVulkan_InitInfo, required
