+Released on 2023-12-13.
+
+### Mock 5.3 new features
+
+- A new plugin to pre-process spec files with rpmautospec [has been
+  implemented][PR#1253].
+
+  If this plugin is enabled, mock pre-processes spec files that use rpmautospec
+  features (for automatic release numbering and changelog generation) before
+  building a source RPM.
+
+- Only run the `%prep` section once when running `%generate_buildrequires`
+  multiple times.
+  Previously Mock run `%prep` repeatedly before each `%generate_buildrequires`
+  round except for the last one.  This was inconsistent and unnecessary
+  slow/wasteful.
+
+  When the original support for `%generate_buildrequires` landed into Mock,
+  the intention was to only call `%prep` once.
+  However when Mock added support for multiple rounds of
+  `%generate_buildrequires`, `%prep` ended up only being skipped in the final
+  `rpmbuild` call. This was an oversight.  `%prep` is now only called once, as
+  originally intended.
+
+  Some RPM packages might be affected by the change, especially if a dirty
+  working directory after running `%generate_buildrequires` affects the results
+  of subsequent rounds of `%generate_buildrequires`.  However, such behavior was
+  undefined and quite buggy even previously, due to the lack of the `%prep`
+  section in the final `rpmbuild` call.
+
+  Packages that need to run commands before every round of
+  `%generate_buildrequires` should place those commands in the
+  `%generate_buildrequires` section itself rather than `%prep`.
+
+- The automatic killing feature for orphan processes within the chroot environment
+  [was][PR#1255] [improved][PR#1268] to also provide the user with information
+  about the command-line arguments of the terminated process:
+
+  `WARNING: Leftover process 1331205 is being killed with signal 15: daemon --with-arg`
+
+- The info about package management tooling used to install the target buildroot
+  has been updated to provide the info earlier, before the buildroot
+  installation happens.  Mock newly informs also about dnf5 presence.
+
+
+### Bugfixes
+
+- The Bash completion bug in Mock for options accepting multiple arguments,
+  tracked in the [long-standing issue][issue#746], has been resolved through [PR#1262].
+
+- If DNF 5 sees an "interactive" TTY on stdout, it will try to draw progress bars
+  and cause the Mock logs to [be garbled](https://github.com/fedora-copr/copr/issues/3040).
+  This release brings a fix that simply sets the output of DNF5 to a pipe instead
+  of a PTY.
+
+- When Mock completes the installation of all the requirements generated
+  by `%generate_buildrequries`, it calls `rpmbuild -ba` to perform a final build
+  of the package.
+
+  During the final build, `%generate_buildrequries` runs again in order to
+  generate a list of `BuildRequires` to be added to the built SRPM metadata.
+  An arbitrary `%generate_buildrequries` section may generate different
+  requirements that may not have been installed.
+
+  Previously, the `rpmbuild -ba` call used the `--nodeps` option,
+  hence it was [possible to successfully build a package with
+  unsatisfiable BuildRequires in the built SRPM metadata][issue#1246].
+
+  When a bootstrap chroot is used, the `--nodeps` option is
+  [no longer used][PR#1249] in the final `rpmbuild -ba` call.
+  If `%generate_buildrequries` attempts to generate new unsatisfied requirements
+  during the final build, the build will fail.
+  When a bootstrap chroot is not used, the `--nodeps` option remains because
+  Mock cannot know if the RPM in chroot can read the RPM database.
