Welcome to Redis 2.1.9 (2.2 Release Candidate 1)
Redis 2.2 release notes

Migrating from 2.0 to 2.2
=========================

Redis 2.0 is mostly a strict subset of 2.2. Some return value changed in edge

upgrading your 2.0 instances to 2.2, as 2.2 can work as a drop in replacement
for 2.0.

What's new in Redis 2.1.10 (2.2 Release Candidate 2)
====================================================

Redis 2.2 RC2 is exactly like RC1 with the following minor changes:

* Added evicted keys counter separated from expired keys.
* Overflow detection in INCR family functions.

Enjoy,
Salvatore
