 ## Unreleased
 
+* [#305](https://github.com/clojure-emacs/refactor-nrepl/issues/305): Don't put `:as` or `:refer` on their own lines in the ns form, when the libspec is so long it causes the line to wrap.
 * [clojure-emacs/clj-refactor.el#459](https://github.com/clojure-emacs/clj-refactor.el/issues/459): `clean-ns` should conform to the style guide: `(:require` in the ns form should be followed by a newline.
   * You can opt out via the new `:insert-newline-after-require` configuration option.
 * [#294](https://github.com/clojure-emacs/refactor-nrepl/pull/294): Properly skip uneval nodes when looking for the first/last sexp
 * From now on, if you set the `clojure.tools.namespace.repl/refresh-dirs`, files outside said `refresh-dirs` won't be analyzed, resulting in safer, more efficient analysis.
