 Bugfix: Correct handling of duplicate index entries
 
-Before restic 0.10.0, a bug could in very rare cases split information
+Before restic 0.10.0, a bug could, in very rare cases, split information
 about a pack file across multiple index files. Since restic 0.17.0, any
 operation that rewrites the index (like `prune` or `repair packs`)
 could lose part of that information, resulting in errors in later

-is not longer needed and has been marked as deprecated. You can still use `--repack-smaller-than`
-to further control repacking of small pack files.

+Enhancement: Show progress for `stats`
 
-Previously, running `restic stats` would only give progress updates for loading the index.
-Now it displays progress for how many snapshots, files, and blobs were processed so far.
-This lets users better understand if the command is working as expected or where it is hanging.
+The `stats` command used to show progress only while loading the index. During
+the scan it printed only `scanning...` with no further updates. It now reports
