 Automatically label new pull requests based on the paths of files being changed or the branch name.
 
+## Breaking changes in V5
+1) The ability to apply labels based on the names of base and/or head branches was added ([#186](https://github.com/actions/labeler/issues/186) and [#54](https://github.com/actions/labeler/issues/54)). The match object for changed files was expanded with new combinations in order to make it more intuitive and flexible ([#423](https://github.com/actions/labeler/issues/423) and [#101](https://github.com/actions/labeler/issues/101)). As a result, the configuration file structure was significantly redesigned and is not compatible with the structure of the previous version. Please read the documentation below to find out how to adapt your configuration files for use with the new action version.
+
+2) The bug related to the `sync-labels` input was fixed ([#112](https://github.com/actions/labeler/issues/112)). Now the input value is read correctly.
+
+3) By default, `dot` input is set to `true`. Now, paths starting with a dot (e.g. `.github`) are matched by default.
+
+4) Version 5 of this action updated the [runtime to Node.js 20](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/creating-actions/metadata-syntax-for-github-actions#runs-for-javascript-actions). All scripts are now run with Node.js 20 instead of Node.js 16 and are affected by any breaking changes between Node.js 16 and 20.

 #### Match Object
 
-The match object allows control over the matching options, you can specify the label to be applied based on the files that have changed or the name of either the base branch or the head branch. For the changed files options you provide a [path glob](https://github.com/isaacs/minimatch#minimatch), and for the branches you provide a regexp to match against the branch name.
+The match object allows control over the matching options. You can specify the label to be applied based on the files that have changed or the name of either the base branch or the head branch. For the changed files options you provide a [path glob](https://github.com/isaacs/minimatch#minimatch), and for the branches you provide a regexp to match against the branch name.
 
 The base match object is defined as:
 ```yml
-- changed-files: ['list', 'of', 'globs']
+- changed-files: 
+  - any-glob-to-any-file: ['list', 'of', 'globs']
+  - any-glob-to-all-files: ['list', 'of', 'globs']

 - head-branch: ['list', 'of', 'regexps']

   - base-branch: ['list', 'of', 'regexps']
   - head-branch: ['list', 'of', 'regexps']
 ```
 
+From a boolean logic perspective, top-level match objects, and options within `all` are `AND`-ed together and individual match rules within the `any` object are `OR`-ed.
+
 One or all fields can be provided for fine-grained matching.
 The fields are defined as follows:
-* `all`: all of the provided options must match in order for the label to be applied
-* `any`: if any of the provided options match then a label will be applied
-* `base-branch`: match regexps against the base branch name
-* `changed-files`: match glob patterns against the changed paths
-* `head-branch`: match regexps against the head branch name
-
-If a base option is provided without a top-level key then it will default to `any`. More specifically, the following two configurations are equivalent:
+- `all`: ALL of the provided options must match for the label to be applied
+- `any`: if ANY of the provided options match then the label will be applied
+  - `base-branch`: match regexps against the base branch name
+  - `head-branch`: match regexps against the head branch name
+  - `changed-files`: match glob patterns against the changed paths
+    - `any-glob-to-any-file`: ANY glob must match against ANY changed file
+    - `any-glob-to-all-files`: ANY glob must match against ALL changed files
+    - `all-globs-to-any-file`: ALL globs must match against ANY changed file
+    - `all-globs-to-all-files`: ALL globs must match against ALL changed files
+
+If a base option is provided without a top-level key, then it will default to `any`. More specifically, the following two configurations are equivalent:
 ```yml
-label1:
-- changed-files: example1/*
+Documentation:
+- changed-files:
+  - any-glob-to-any-file: 'docs/*'
 ```
 and
 ```yml
-label1:
+Documentation:
 - any:
-  - changed-files: ['example1/*']
+  - changed-files:
+    - any-glob-to-any-file: 'docs/*'
 ```
 
-From a boolean logic perspective, top-level match objects, and options within `all`  are `AND`-ed together and individual match rules within the `any` object are `OR`-ed. If path globs are combined with `!` negation, you can write complex matching rules.
-
-> ⚠️ This action uses [minimatch](https://www.npmjs.com/package/minimatch) to apply glob patterns.
-> For historical reasons, paths starting with dot (e.g. `.github`) are not matched by default.
-> You need to set `dot: true` to change this behavior.
-> See [Inputs](#inputs) table below for details.
+ If path globs are combined with `!` negation, you can write complex matching rules. See the examples below for more information.
