56 <!-- Changes that affect Black's preview style -->
58 - Enforce empty lines before classes and functions with sticky leading comments (#3302)

63 - Correctly handle trailing commas that are inside a line's leading non-nested parens
68 <!-- Changes to how Black can be configured -->

85 <!-- For example, Docker, GitHub Actions, pre-commit, editors -->
87 - Vim plugin: Optionally allow using the system installation of Black via
88 `let g:black_use_virtualenv = 0`(#3309)
94 - Runtime support for Python 3.6 has been removed. Formatting 3.6 code will still be

115 - Executables made with PyInstaller will no longer crash when formatting several files
116 at once on macOS. Native x86-64 executables for macOS are available once again.

119 who install Black with its wheels from PyPI. (#3233)

149 - Fix incorrect handling of `# fmt: skip` on colon (`:`) lines (#3148)
150 - Comments are no longer deleted when a line had spaces removed around power operators

194 about failed caching that can and should be ignored (#3193)
198 - Type comments are now included in the AST equivalence check consistently so accidental
199 deletion raises an error. Though type comments can't be tracked when running on PyPy

843 - `blackd` now supports CORS (#622)
