+### Improvements and bug fixes to the new startup messages
+
+The two new startup messages introduced in sbt 0.13.15 are:
+
++ when writing out `sbt.version` for build reproducability, and
++ when informing the user sbt shell for the performance improvement
+
+When writing out `sbt.version` the messaging now:
+
++ correctly uses a logger rather than println
++ honours the log level set, for instance, by `--error`
++ never runs when sbt "new" is being run
+
+When informing the user about sbt shell the messaging now:
+
++ is a 1 line message, rather than 3
++ is at info level, rather than warn level
++ can be suppressed with `suppressSbtShellNotification := false`
++ only triggers when "compile" is being run
++ never shows when sbt "new" is being run
