+_Black_ will split long string literals and merge short ones. Parentheses are used where
+appropriate. When split, parts of f-strings that don't need formatting are converted to
+plain strings. User-made splits are respected when they do not exceed the line length
+limit. Line continuation backslashes are converted into parenthesized strings.
+Unnecessary parentheses are stripped. The stability and status of this feature is
 tracked in [this issue](https://github.com/psf/black/issues/2188).
