+⚠️ Breaking changes alert ⚠️

+**dcm2bids>=3.0.0 is not compatible with config files made for v2.1.9 and below**.
+In order to develop dcm2bids new features we had to rewrite some of its code.  
+Since v3.0.0, dcm2bids has become **more powerful** and **more flexible** while reducing the burden of creating config files. Porting your config file should be relatively easy by following the [How-to upgrade][dcm2bids-upgrade] page.
