I'm pleased to announce the 19.0.0 release of xf86-video-amdgpu, the
Xorg driver for AMD Radeon GPUs supported by the amdgpu kernel driver.
This release supports xserver versions 1.13-1.20.

Highlights:

* Support for FreeSync variable refresh rate (this also requires the
  amdgpu driver from kernel 5.0 or newer, and radeonsi from Mesa 19.0 or
  newer).
* Various TearFree related fixes and robustness improvements.
* Support for scanout buffers using DCC colour compression.
* Up to six independent instances per GPU are now supported in "Zaphod"
  style multi-head configurations.

Plus other improvements and fixes. Thanks to everybody who contributed
to this release in any way!
