 Release Notes
 =============
 
+2.1.19
+------
+
+This release adds the ``--python-path`` option, which allows controlling the
+interpreter search paths when building a PEX.
+
+The release also removes ``--use-first-matching-interpreter``, which was a misfeature. If you want to use
+fewer interpreters when building a PEX, use more precise values for ``--interpreter-constraint`` and/or
+``--python-path``, or use ``--python`` or ``--platform``.
+
+* Add ``--python-path`` to change interpreter search paths when building a PEX. (#1077)
