   `BorrowedMessage`, is still accessible as

+* Support incremental cooperative rebalancing ([#364]). There are two changes
+  of note:
+
+    * The addition of `Consumer::rebalance_protocol` to determine the rebalance
+      protocol in use.
+
+    * The modification of the default rebalance callback
+      (`ConsumerContext::rebalance`) to perform incremental assignments and
+      unassignments when the rebalance protocol in use is
+      [`RebalanceProtocol::Cooperative`].
