+## 0.6.1 - 21st September 2026
+
+* Promoted the Synesis Linguist language-bar into **templates/gitattributes/{c,cxx,c_cxx}/** (public C API headers as C; `*.cmake` as CMake; helpers / IDE / **CMakeLists.txt** / `makefile` `-linguist-detectable`);
+* Updated **templates/gitattributes/README.md** (language-bar is house policy, not an omitted remap);
+* Expanded **templates/gitignore/c#/** from the lean consensus to the SDK-era Visual Studio / NuGet / Coverlet / BenchmarkDotNet ignore union (gold section layout; unrooted IDE and artefact dirs; omits **`.vscode/`** so tracked settings survive);
+* Updated **templates/gitignore/README.md** (C# gold is the SDK-era union);

 ## 0.6.0 - 18th September 2026
 
 * Expanded **templates/gitignore/{c,cxx,c_cxx}/** from the lean consensus to the historical Synesis C/C++ ignore union (gold section layout; MSVC, logs, IDE, artefact dirs; omits `.vscode/` and owning-library `/include/` `/src/` trees);
