+### Improved empty line management
+
+1. _Black_ will remove newlines in the beginning of new code blocks, i.e. when the
+ indentation level is increased. For example:
+
+ ```python
+ def my_func():
+
+ print("The line above me will be deleted!")
+ ```
+
+ will be changed to:
+
+ ```python
+ def my_func():
+ print("The line above me will be deleted!")
+ ```
+
+ This new feature will be applied to **all code blocks**: `def`, `class`, `if`,
+ `for`, `while`, `with`, `case` and `match`.
+
+2. _Black_ will enforce empty lines before classes and functions with leading comments.
+ For example:
+
+ ```python
+ some_var = 1
+ # Leading sticky comment
+ def my_func():
+ ...
+ ```
+
+ will be changed to:
+
+ ```python
+ some_var = 1
+
+
+ # Leading sticky comment
+ def my_func():
+ ...
+ ```
+
+### Improved parentheses management
+
+_Black_ will format parentheses around return annotations similarly to other sets of
+parentheses. For example:
+
+```python
+def foo() -> (int):
+ ...
+
+def foo() -> looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong:
+ ...
+```
+
+will be changed to:
+
+```python
+def foo() -> int:
+ ...
+
+
+def foo() -> (
+ looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong
+):
+ ...
+```
+
+And, extra parentheses in `await` expressions and `with` statements are removed. For
+example:
+
+```python
+with ((open("bla.txt")) as f, open("x")):
+ ...
+
+async def main():
+ await (asyncio.sleep(1))
+```
+
+will be changed to:
+
+```python
+with open("bla.txt") as f, open("x"):
+ ...
+
+
+async def main():
+ await asyncio.sleep(1)
+```
