+## [1.19.0] - 2016-11-12
 ### Added
+- `FlagsByName` was added to make it easy to sort flags (e.g. `sort.Sort(cli.FlagsByName(app.Flags))`)
+- A `Description` field was added to `App` for a more detailed description of
+  the application (similar to the existing `Description` field on `Command`)
 - Flag type code generation via `go generate`
 - Write to stderr and exit 1 if action returns non-nil error
 - Added support for TOML to the `altsrc` loader
+- `SkipArgReorder` was added to allow users to skip the argument reordering.
+  This is useful if you want to consider all "flags" after an argument as
+  arguments rather than flags (the default behavior of the stdlib `flag`
+  library). This is backported functionality from the [removal of the flag
+  reordering](https://github.com/urfave/cli/pull/398) in the unreleased version
+  2
 
 ### Changed
 - Raise minimum tested/supported Go version to 1.2+
 
+### Fixed
+- Consider empty environment variables as set (previously environment variables
+  with the equivalent of `""` would be skipped rather than their value used).
+- Return an error if the value in a given environment variable cannot be parsed
+  as the flag type. Previously these errors were silently swallowed.
+- Print full error when an invalid flag is specified (which includes the invalid flag)
+- `App.Writer` defaults to `stdout` when `nil`
+- If no action is specified on a command or app, the help is now printed instead of `panic`ing
+- `App.Metadata` is initialized automatically now (previously was `nil` unless initialized)
+- Correctly show help message if `-h` is provided to a subcommand
+- `context.(Global)IsSet` now respects environment variables. Previously it
+  would return `false` if a flag was specified in the environment rather than
+  as an argument
+- Removed deprecation warnings to STDERR to avoid them leaking to the end-user
+- `altsrc`s import paths were updated to use `gopkg.in/urfave/cli.v1`. This
+  fixes issues that occurred when `gopkg.in/urfave/cli.v1` was imported as well
+  as `altsrc` where Go would complain that the types didn't match
