-- Fix an issue where nested local composite actions did not correctly register post steps (#1433)
+- Fix windows console runner update crash (#1670) 
+- Retry policy for methods GetTenantCredential and GetJITRunnerTokenAsync (#1691)
+- Skip DeleteAgentSession when the acess token has been revoked. (#1692)
+- Repaired hashFiles call so if error was thrown, it was returned to process invoker (#1678)
+- Runner throws null ref exception when new line after EOF is missing (#1687)
+- Lets allow up to 150 characters for services on linux/mac (#1710) 
 
 ## Misc
 
-- Cleanup Older versions on MacOS now that we recreate node versions as needed (#1410)
+- Added examples and aligned language within docs/checks/actions.md (#1664)
+- Problem with debugging on macOS M1 (#1625) 
+- Fix typo in hashFiles.ts. (#1672) 
+- Allow mocked updates for E2E testing (#1654)

+- Fix inconsistency of outputs (both canceled and cancelled are used (#1624)
 
 ## Windows x64
 We recommend configuring the runner in a root folder of the Windows drive (e.g. "C:\actions-runner"). This will help avoid issues related to service identity folder permissions and long file path restrictions on Windows.
