Version 1.3.0

  (change logging) records, which are intentionally not included in the existing import_netbox_json command.

  on Device records.

Fixed

• #42 - Clarify in the README which NetBox versions are currently supported.

• #43 - Fix test approach to ensure that tests execute against the test database rather than the development database.
