* Added *racking_model*, *module_type*, and *temperature_model_parameters* to
PVSystem, LocalizedPVSystem, SingleAxisTracker, and
LocalizedSingleAxisTracker repr methods. (:issue:`1027`)
* Added :py:func:`~pvlib.tracking.calc_axis_tilt` and
:py:func:`~pvlib.tracking.calc_system_side_slope` to calculate the
tracker axes tilt and the side-slope angle, which is perpendicular to the
tracker axes for trackers on sloped terrain that is not parallel to the axes,
such as a north-south tracker on an south-east slope. (:pull:`823`)
* Added ``side_slope`` argument to :py:func:`~pvlib.tracking.singleaxis` and
:py:func:`~pvlib.tracking.SingleAxisTracker` which defaults to zero. Use
:py:func:`~pvlib.tracking.calc_system_side_slope` to calculate the
side-slope angle if necessary. (:pull:`823`)
* Added ability for :py:func:`pvlib.soiling.hsu` to accept arbitrary time intervals. (:pull:`980`)

Bug fixes
~~~~~~~~~
* Fixed unit and default value errors in :py:func:`pvlib.soiling.hsu`. (:pull:`977`, :pull:`980`)
* Handle NUL characters and fix version column dtype in
:py:func:`~pvlib.iotools.crn.read_crn`. (:issue:`1025`)
* Fix low sun angle tracker rotation calculation. (:issue:`824`)
