Changelog
=========
+* :bug:`-` `paramiko.file.BufferedFile.read` incorrectly returned text strings
+ after the Python 3 migration, despite bytes being more appropriate for file
+ contents (which may be binary or of an unknown encoding.) This has been
+ addressed.
+
+ .. note::
+ `paramiko.file.BufferedFile.readline` continues to return strings, not
+ bytes, as "lines" only make sense for textual data. It assumes UTF-8 by
+ default.
+
+ This should fix `this issue raised on the Obnam mailing list
+ <http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.sysutils.backup.obnam/252>`_. Thanks
+ to Antoine Brenner for the patch.
* :bug:`-` Added self.args for exception classes. Used for unpickling. Related
to (`Fabric #986 <https://github.com/fabric/fabric/issues/986>`_, `Fabric
#714 <https://github.com/fabric/fabric/issues/714>`_). Thanks to Alex
