mne_bids.BIDSPath.match() and mne_bids.find_matching_paths() now have additional parameters ignore_json and ignore_nosub, to give users more control over which type of files are matched, by Kaare Mikkelsen (#1281)
mne_bids.write_raw_bids() can now handle event metadata as a pandas DataFrame, by Thomas Hartmann (#1285)

mne_bids.read_raw_bids() no longer warns about unit changes in channels upon reading, as that information is taken from channels.tsv and judged authorative, by Stefan Appelhoff (#1282)
