<!-- Changes that affect Black's stable style -->
+- Fix a crash when a colon line is marked between `# fmt: off` and `# fmt: on` (#3439)
+
### Preview style
<!-- Changes that affect Black's preview style -->
-- Enforce empty lines before classes and functions with sticky leading comments (#3302)
-- Implicitly concatenated strings used as function args are now wrapped inside
- parentheses (#3307)
-- Correctly handle trailing commas that are inside a line's leading non-nested parens
- (#3370)
+- Add parentheses around `if`-`else` expressions (#2278)
+- Improve the performance on large expressions that contain many strings (#3467)
+- Fix a crash in preview style with assert + parenthesized string (#3415)
+- Fix crashes in preview style with walrus operators used in function return annotations
+ and except clauses (#3423)
+- Fix a crash in preview advanced string processing where mixed implicitly concatenated
+ regular and f-strings start with an empty span (#3463)
+- Fix a crash in preview advanced string processing where a standalone comment is placed
+ before a dict's value (#3469)
+- Fix an issue where extra empty lines are added when a decorator has `# fmt: skip`
+ applied or there is a standalone comment between decorators (#3470)
+- Do not put the closing quotes in a docstring on a separate line, even if the line is
+ too long (#3430)
+- Long values in dict literals are now wrapped in parentheses; correspondingly
+ unnecessary parentheses around short values in dict literals are now removed; long
+ string lambda values are now wrapped in parentheses (#3440)
+- Exclude string type annotations from improved string processing; fix crash when the
+ return type annotation is stringified and spans across multiple lines (#3462)
### Configuration
<!-- Changes to how Black can be configured -->
-- Fix incorrectly applied .gitignore rules by considering the .gitignore location and
- the relative path to the target file (#3338)
-- Fix incorrectly ignoring .gitignore presence when more than one source directory is
- specified (#3336)
-
### Packaging
<!-- Changes to how Black is packaged, such as dependency requirements -->
+- Upgrade mypyc from `0.971` to `0.991` so mypycified _Black_ can be built on armv7
+ (#3380)
+- Drop specific support for the `tomli` requirement on 3.11 alpha releases, working
+ around a bug that would cause the requirement not to be installed on any non-final
+ Python releases (#3448)
+
### Parser
<!-- Changes to the parser or to version autodetection -->
-- Parsing support has been added for walruses inside generator expression that are
- passed as function args (for example,
- `any(match := my_re.match(text) for text in texts)`) (#3327).
-
### Performance
<!-- Changes that improve Black's performance. -->
<!-- Changes to Black's terminal output and error messages -->
+- Verbose logging now shows the values of `pyproject.toml` configuration variables
+ (#3392)
+
### _Blackd_
<!-- Changes to blackd -->
<!-- For example, Docker, GitHub Actions, pre-commit, editors -->
-- Vim plugin: Optionally allow using the system installation of Black via
- `let g:black_use_virtualenv = 0`(#3309)
+- Move 3.11 CI to normal flow now all dependencies support 3.11 (#3446)
+- Docker: Add new `latest_prerelease` tag automation to follow latest black alpha
+ release on docker images (#3465)
### Documentation
<!-- Major changes to documentation and policies. Small docs changes
don't need a changelog entry. -->
+- Expand `vim-plug` installation instructions to offer more explicit options (#3468)

+<!-- Changes that affect Black's preview style -->
+
+- Enforce empty lines before classes and functions with sticky leading comments (#3302)
+- Reformat empty and whitespace-only files as either an empty file (if no newline is
+ present) or as a single newline character (if a newline is present) (#3348)
+- Implicitly concatenated strings used as function args are now wrapped inside
+ parentheses (#3307)
+- For assignment statements, prefer splitting the right hand side if the left hand side
+ fits on a single line (#3368)
+- Correctly handle trailing commas that are inside a line's leading non-nested parens
+ (#3370)
