 Changes in version 3.45 are described in:

 https://github.com/latex3/babel/wiki/What's-new-in-babel-3.45

 Here is a summary:

 - Minor fixes in Hindi, Ancient Greek, Macedonian.

 - Improvements in Kurdish, Marathi.

 - Alternative date formats with \localedate[calendar=...,
   variant=...]{y}{m}{d} (note: no calendar computations, just
   strings).

 - \today is (again) case-aware.

 - \localenumeral{digits}{..} and \localecounter{digits}{cntr}
   for native digits.

 - Fixes
   - Improved handling of math with \babelposthyphenation and
     \babelprehyphenation (it was ignoring too much).
   - An error related to \bbl at foreign@x could be raised in some
     rare cases.
