## Executive Summary (TL;DR)
Cypress v0.17.4. Source highlight: *Released 09/12/2016*

## Breaking Changes & Deprecations
- Breaking Changes:** - Using subsequent [cy.visit()](https://on.cypress.io/visit)'s *in the same test* will not necessarily force a full page refresh. If all that changed was the hash of a url, then the hash changes will take affect **without** a full page refresh. This matches the behavior of a real browser. Previously [cy.visit()](https://on.cypress.io/visit) always forced a full page refresh and this was not correct.

## Bug Fixes
- Fixed a regression in `0.17.2` which caused **separate** tests that were visiting the same URL not to actually visit the new URL and eventually time out. We've updated some of our internal QA processes around this because we rarely have regressions and they are a pretty big deal. Fixes #225.
- Fixed displaying `(null)` contentType when a cy.visit() returned a `404` status code. We now only display `contentType` when one exists.
