 ### Deprecated
 
+- [#1063](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/1063) - `touch_with_version` is deprecated in favor of using the original AR `touch` method
 - [#1033](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/1033) - Request variables
   are now set using eg. `PaperTrail.request.whodunnit=` and the old way,
   `PaperTrail.whodunnit=` is deprecated.
 
 ### Added
 
+- [#1063](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/1063) - AR `touch` method now creates a version if the `:on` option includes `touch`. By default it also includes the `touch` event now.
 - [#1033](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail/pull/1033) -
   Set request variables temporarily using a block, eg.
   `PaperTrail.request(whodunnit: 'Jared') do .. end`

+### 3.e. Trigger Version creation
+
+At some point you may want to trigger a new version to be created. To do this we utilize the AR `touch` method.
+
+```ruby
+widget.touch
+```
+
+The new versions event will be saved as `update`.
+
+If you are using the `:on` option in your model you must specify the `touch` event also. For example:
+
+```ruby
+has_paper_trail on: [:update, :destroy, :touch]
+```
