+## [1.2.0] - 2026-10-08
+
+### Changed
+
+- Raised `rust-version` from 1.85 to 1.99. The CI MSRV job pins 1.99.0 and the README MSRV line reads 1.99. A minor release carries this change: a raised MSRV is possibly breaking per the Cargo book rules.
+- Fixed the clippy 0.1.99 `assert_is_empty` findings in the `VarBytes` tests. No public API changes.
