2022-06-21 i3lock 2.14.1
• unlock indicator: display only caps lock and num lock,
not all modifiers like shift (which can leak information
about your password to bystanders)
2022-05-28 i3lock 2.14
• Change default background color to #a3a3a3
See https://github.com/i3/i3lock/pull/300 for extensive
discussion and rationale for this change.
• Recommend using xss-lock to start i3lock in the README
and i3lock.1 man page. xss-lock is the best way to ensure
your screen truly is locked before your computer suspends.
• Display modifier key warning before unlocking, too,
not just on failed attempts like before.
• Switch build system from autotools to meson.

2017-06-21 i3lock 2.9.1

• Bugfix: Copy the color depth from parent (root) window instead of
hardcoding a depth of 24
