+## Dist is now a top level command
+
+Previously creating a source archive could only be done with `ninja
+dist`. Starting with this release Meson provides a top level `dist`
+that can be invoked directly. It also has a command line option to
+determine which kinds of archives to create:
+
+```meson
+meson dist --formats=xztar,zip
