I just read the notes that have changes, assuming that the ones that don't are ok already.

The default behavior of the :class:`~.Estimator` primitive will now
group the input observable into qubit-wise commutable observables.
The grouping reduces the number of circuits to be executed and improves
the performance. If you desire the previous behavior you can initialize
your :class:`~.Estimator` instance with the keyword argument
``abelian_grouping=False``.

Maybe we should mention that there should be no difference in the returned results, assuming that's correct?

I don't actually know, I would assume it would be no different. But we can always add it after after @ikkoham confirms

This release of Qiskit Aer is not compatible with the Conan 2.X release
series. If you are building Qiskit Aer from source manually ensure that
you are using a Conan 1.x release. Compatibility with newer versions
of Conan will be fixed in a future release. You can refer to
issue `#1730 <https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit-aer/issues/1730>`__ for
more details.

Don't we manually set this in our build files? I don't think it should be possible to get into a situation where you're using the wrong Conan anymore, unless you're trying to manually manage things in a direct setuptools build, which is pretty much the wild west of build processes.

We do, but it's still probably best to document it as a known limitation just in case it comes up.

The ``BLA_VENDOR`` environment variable can now be specified to use a
different BLAS library when building Qiskit Aer from source. By default
if this is not specified OpenBLAS will be used by default. If
the BLAS library specified in `BLA_VENDOR`` can not be found then the

Heh, it's BLA_VENDOR: https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit-aer/blob/main/cmake/FindBLAS.cmake.fix-static-linking#L42-L63

No idea why, but that seems to be the convention in FindBLAS cmake module

* Bump version strings to prepare for release

* Remove redundant wheel dep from pyproject.toml (#1741)

Remove the redundant `wheel` dependency, as it is added by the backend automatically.

Listing it explicitly in the documentation was a historical mistake and has been fixed since,
see: [pypa/setuptools@f7d30a9](pypa/setuptools@f7d30a9).

* Add git blame ignore file (#1745)

This commit adds a new file with the SHA1 of commits to ignore when
running git blame. This is important because of the recent adoption of
black and clang-format as our code formatting tool in #1630 we caused a
large amount of code churn to change the code formatting. However, using
the ignore file is a local opt-in feature for git and not something we
can enable globally by default. To facilitate this a section is added to
the bottom of the contributing guide to document how this file can be
used.

* Fix wrong set of parameters in circuits with barriers (#1775)

* Fix wrong set of parameters in circuits with barriers

`AerCircuit` is created from a circuit by iterating its instrucitons
while skpping barrier. This leads inconsistency with positions of
parameter bindings. This commit adds barrier instruction to the class
and keeps positions of parameter bindings.

* Resolve regression from introduction of AER::Config (#1747)

This commit reduces redundant copy in `AER::Transpile::CircuitOptimization`.
Since 0.12.0, configuration is `AER::Config` instead of `json_t`. This new class
has many fields and then its copy overheads become high. Reduction of
redundant copy improves performance especially for low-qubit simulation.

* Remove Sampler.close, assert DeprecationWarning of opflow, and update dependency (#1804)

Since qiskit-terra 0.24, `Sampler` does not have `close()` but Aer's `Sampler` still have the method. This commit takes the method as well as upgrade of Python versions in tutorial tests from 3.7 to 3.8.

* rm close
* assert DeprecationWarning
* update dependency

0.12.0 accidentally removed MPI support if application does not use qobj. This commit reverts the change.

* Add implicit cast of argument types (#1770)

* Add implicit cast of argument types

Since 0.12.0, AerConfig is used to configure simulation, which
is directly bound to a AER::Config object through pybind.
This change requires application to specify strictly correct types
of configuration options. This commit allows implicit casting
to arguments if application specifies them with wrong types.
This commit resolves #1754.

* does not warning in cast of numpy classes if they are compatible with expected type
* fix lint issue
* simplify class checking

* Fix handling of None in noise model construction from BackendV2 (#1818)

Fixes `NoiseModel.from_backend` not to fail when calling it with a V2 backend having
faulty qubits such that T1 and T2 are `None` in the `target.qubit_properties`. 

* fix handling of None in noise model construction from BackendV2
* add reno
* simplify a bit
* update docs

* Add Getting Started page (#1780)

* Support parameterized global phase (#1814)

* Support parameterized global phase

Though `ParameterExpression` can be set to `QuantumCircuit.global_phase`,
Aer does not bind parameter values to it in simulation phase. This commit fixes
this problem by resolving values of `global_phase` with specified `parameter_binds`
in `AerSimulator.run`.

* define AER::CONFIG::GLOBAL_PHASE_POS and its pybind
* fix lint issues

* Validate parameters of each gate in a circuit (#1834)

This commit adds checks of arguments (A number of qubits, clbits,
and parameters) for each gate to prevent from unexpected memory access
when a user defines wrong custom gate with a number of a standard gate.

* validate parameters of each gate in a circuit
* fix lint error
* fix lint error

* Correct a type of variance from complex to real (#1767)

Previously Aer Estimator wrongly returned a complex value as variance of estimation values.
This commit fixes this behavior to return a real value.

* update version in docs/conf.py

* Do not use circuit metadata to internally manage simulation results (#1772)

* Stop using circuit metadata to internaly manage simulation results

This fixes `AerSimulator` to use circuit metadata to maintain mapping
from input and output of an executor call. This fixes an issue
#1723.

* add index of AER::Circuit and ExperimentResult

* add a link to an input circuit in each experiment result

* fix MPI build break (#1842)

* Batch QuantumCircuit with multiple parameter_binds (#1840)

`Estimator` in Aer did not use parameter bindings appropriately. Backend is called multiple times 
to simulate a circuit with multiple parameter-sets. This commit is to call backend once for multiple
parameter-sets for a circuit.

* WIP
* refactor
* lint
* add reno

* add release note with prelude

* *Support initialize with int (#1841)

Previously `QuantumCircuit.initialize` was not correctly preocessed
if initial state is specified with single `int` value. This commit
fixes this issue by decomposing initialize instructions.
