+## Upgrade Notes
+
+Komga `1.25.0` adds support for solid RAR4 archives, enforces Kobo content
+restrictions more consistently, flattens hierarchical OpenAPI schemas, and
+updates application dependencies including Spring Boot. Back up the `/config`
+PVC before upgrading because Komga stores its SQLite databases there.
