+## v3.2.0 (2024-10-20)
+[Source](https:/AcademySoftwareFoundation/rez/tree/3.2.0) | [Diff](https:/AcademySoftwareFoundation/rez/compare/3.1.1...3.2.0)
+
+This release introduces a long awaited and requested feature: the ability to synchronously cache
+package payloads. This behaviour can be controlled centrally using the new `package_cache_async`
+setting in your rezconfig files. The default value is True, which means that as before, caches
+will be synced asynchrously. `rez-env` also gained a new `--pkg-cache-mode` to control the
+caching behaviour on a per case basis.
+
+Other note worthy additions are the new `testing` object that can be used to test if `rez-test` is currently running from withing commands functions and early bound functions. Additionally, a new setting `default_build_process`
+was added to set the default build process to be used by rez-build.
+
+Thanks to everybody who contributed and made all these features, bugfixes and improvements possible!
