 * The order is now preserved for subcommands (list and callbacks) [#49](https://github.com/CLIUtils/CLI11/pull/49)
 * Tests now run individually, utilizing CMake 3.10 additions if possible [#50](https://github.com/CLIUtils/CLI11/pull/50)
 * Failure messages are now customizable, with a shorter default [#52](https://github.com/CLIUtils/CLI11/pull/52)

+* `require_subcommand` now offers a two-argument form and negative values on the one-argument form are more useful [#51](https://github.com/CLIUtils/CLI11/pull/51)
+* Subcommands no longer match after the max required number is obtained [#51](https://github.com/CLIUtils/CLI11/pull/51)
