+### Added
+
 - `bitswap/client`: Improved timeout configuration for block requests
   - Exposed `DontHaveTimeoutConfig` to hold configuration values for `dontHaveTimeoutMgr` which controls how long to wait for requested block before emitting a synthetic DontHave response
   - Added `DefaultDontHaveTimeoutConfig()` to return a `DontHaveTimeoutConfig` populated with default values
   - Added optional `WithDontHaveTimeoutConfig` to allow passing a custom `DontHaveTimeoutConfig`
   - Setting `SetSendDontHaves(false)` works the same as before. Behind the scenes, it will disable `dontHaveTimeoutMgr` by passing a `nil` `onDontHaveTimeout` to `newDontHaveTimeoutMgr`.

 ### Changed
 
 - 🛠 `blockstore` and `blockservice`'s `WriteThrough()` option now takes an "enabled" parameter: `WriteThrough(enabled bool)`.
 - Replaced unmaintained mock time implementation uses in tests: [from](github.com/benbjohnson/clock) => [to](github.com/filecoin-project/go-clock)
-- upgrade to go-libp2p [v0.38.1](https://github.com/libp2p/go-libp2p/releases/tag/v0.38.1)
 - `bitswap/client`: if a libp2p connection has a context, use `context.AfterFunc` to cleanup the connection.
 - upgrade to `go-libp2p-kad-dht` [v0.28.1](https://github.com/libp2p/go-libp2p-kad-dht/releases/tag/v0.28.1)
