 Changes from Ant 1.10.12 TO Ant 1.10.13
 =======================================
 
+Changes that could break older environments:
+-------------------------------------------
+
+* <get> has a new attribute authenticateOnRedirect that can be used to
+  prevent Ant from sending the configured credentials when following a
+  redirect. It is false by default, which means builds that rely on
+  credentials being used on the redirected URI may break.
