 ## Unreleased
 * Fixed a bug caused by having reference properties (such as `ObjectValue.Value`) that point to an Instance not included in syncback. ([#1179])
 * Implemented support for the "name" property in meta/model JSON files. ([#1187])
+* Fixed instance replacement fallback failing when too many instances needed to be replaced. ([#1192])
+* Fixed a bug where MacOS paths weren't being handled correctly. ([#1201])
