65 - Python 3.11 is now supported, except for _blackd_ as aiohttp does not support 3.11 as
67 - This is the last release that supports running _Black_ on Python 3.6 (formatting 3.6
68 code will continue to be supported until further notice)
69 - Reword the stability policy to say that we may, in rare cases, make changes that
70 affect code that was not previously formatted by _Black_ (#3155)

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

104 automatically discovered directories were respected (#3237)
108 - Recommend using BlackConnect in IntelliJ IDEs (#3150)
112 - Vim plugin: prefix messages with `Black: ` so it's clear they come from Black (#3194)

122 about failed caching that can and should be ignored (#3193)

829 - they now correctly work across function/class boundaries (#335)
831 - they now work when an indentation block starts with empty lines or misaligned
