== Detailed Description ==
Vagrant 2.2 is new upstream's major release, that includes many
features, improvements, and and bug fixes.
Using '''qemu:///session''' instead of
'''qemu:///system''' Vagrant
will run unprivileged.

* Enable QEMU Session by default. With this, there's no need for user
to input any password, or be present in some group. Everyone is able
to use Vagrant, regardless of group or other ACLs.
* Add host support for void linux
* Add support for VirtualBox 6.0
* Add command for uploading files to guest

== Upgrade/compatibility impact ==
Because of QEMU Session enabled by defailt, a failure occurs with if
Vagrantfile contains:
```
test_vm.vm.network :private_network, :ip => "172.16.0.2"
```
or similar.
Can be solved by setting `libvirt.qemu_use_session = false` in Vagrantfile.
== How To Test ==
* No special hardware is needed.
* Install Vagrant
* Run ```vagrant version```
* Use your Vagrantfiles or create new as before
* If something doesn't work as it should, let us know.
