+## Changelog
+
+### 1.12.0
+
+- Add `Status` field to `VolumeDriver.Get` response ([#21006](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/21006#))
+
+### 1.10.0
+
+- Add `VolumeDriver.Get` which gets the details about the volume ([#16534](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/16534))
+- Add `VolumeDriver.List` which lists all volumes owned by the driver ([#16534](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/16534))
+
+### 1.8.0
+
+- Initial support for volume driver plugins ([#14659](https://github.com/docker/docker/pull/14659))
+
 ## Command-line changes
 
 A volume plugin makes use of the `-v`and `--volume-driver` flag on the `docker run` command.  The `-v` flag accepts a volume name and the `--volume-driver` flag a driver type, for example:
