 ## master
 
+- Fix compatibility with redis-rb 4.6.0. `Redis::Namespace#multi` and `Redis::Namespace#pipelined` were no longer
+  thread-safe. Calling these methods concurrently onthe same instance could cause pipelines or transaction to be
+  intertwined. See https://github.com/resque/redis-namespace/issues/191 and https://github.com/redis/redis-rb/issues/1088
+
 ## 1.8.1
 
  - Allow Ruby 3.0 version in gemspec
