+## [14.0.0] (2025-05-18)
+
+### Added
+
+- support for groups of options and commands in the help using low-level `.helpGroup()` on `Option` and `Command`, and higher-level `.optionsGroup()` and `.commandsGroup()` which can be used in chaining way to specify group title for following options/commands ([#2328])
+- support for unescaped negative numbers as option-arguments and command-arguments ([#2339])
+- TypeScript: add `parseArg` property to `Argument` class ([#2359])
+
+### Fixed
+
+- remove bogus leading space in help when option has default value but not a description ([#2348])
+- `.configureOutput()` now makes copy of settings instead of modifying in-place, fixing side-effects ([#2350])
+
+### Changed
+
+- *Breaking:* Commander 14 requires Node.js v20 or higher
+- internal refactor of `Help` class adding `.formatItemList()` and `.groupItems()` methods ([#2328])
+
