 key.  My recommendation here is to keep using whatever is faster to type

+If you are adopting *Black* in a large project with pre-existing string
+conventions (like the popular ["single quotes for data, double quotes for
+human-readable strings"](https://stackoverflow.com/a/56190)), you can
+pass `--skip-string-normalization` on the command line.  This is meant as
+an adoption helper, avoid using this for new projects.
+
+### Numeric literals
+
+*Black* standardizes most numeric literals to use lowercase letters for the
+syntactic parts and uppercase letters for the digits themselves: `0xAB`
+instead of `0XAB` and `1e10` instead of `1E10`. Python 2 long literals are
+styled as `2L` instead of `2l` to avoid confusion between `l` and `1`. In
+Python 3.6+, *Black* adds underscores to long numeric literals to aid
+readability: `100000000` becomes `100_000_000`.
+
+For regions where numerals are grouped differently (like [India](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_numbering_system)
+and [China](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_numerals#Whole_numbers)),
+the `-N` or `--skip-numeric-underscore-normalization` command line option
+makes *Black* preserve underscores in numeric literals.

+## pyproject.toml
+
+*Black* is able to read project-specific default values for its
+command line options from a `pyproject.toml` file.  This is
+especially useful for specifying custom `--include` and `--exclude`
+patterns for your project.
+
+**Pro-tip**: If you're asking yourself "Do I need to configure anything?"
+the answer is "No".  *Black* is all about sensible defaults.
+
+
+### What on Earth is a `pyproject.toml` file?
+
+[PEP 518](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0518/) defines
+`pyproject.toml` as a configuration file to store build system
+requirements for Python projects.  With the help of tools
+like [Poetry](https://poetry.eustace.io/) or
+[Flit](https://flit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) it can fully replace the
+need for `setup.py` and `setup.cfg` files.
+
+
+### Where *Black* looks for the file
+
+By default *Black* looks for `pyproject.toml` starting from the common
+base directory of all files and directories passed on the command line.
+If it's not there, it looks in parent directories.  It stops looking
+when it finds the file, or a `.git` directory, or a `.hg` directory,
+or the root of the file system, whichever comes first.
+
+If you're formatting standard input, *Black* will look for configuration
+starting from the current working directory.
+
+You can also explicitly specify the path to a particular file that you
+want with `--config`.  In this situation *Black* will not look for any
+other file.
+
+If you're running with `--verbose`, you will see a blue message if
+a file was found and used.
+
+Please note `blackd` will not use `pyproject.toml` configuration. 
+
+
+### Configuration format
+
+As the file extension suggests, `pyproject.toml` is a [TOML](https://github.com/toml-lang/toml) file.  It contains separate
+sections for different tools.  *Black* is using the `[tool.black]`
+section.  The option keys are the same as long names of options on
+the command line.
+
+Note that you have to use single-quoted strings in TOML for regular
+expressions. It's the equivalent of r-strings in Python.  Multiline
+strings are treated as verbose regular expressions by Black.  Use `[ ]`
+to denote a significant space character.
+
+<details>
+<summary>Example `pyproject.toml`</summary>
+
+```toml
+[tool.black]
+line-length = 88
+py36 = true
+include = '\.pyi?$'
+exclude = '''
+/(
+    \.git
+  | \.hg
+  | \.mypy_cache
+  | \.tox
+  | \.venv
+  | _build
+  | buck-out
+  | build
+  | dist
+
+  # The following are specific to Black, you probably don't want those.
+  | blib2to3
+  | tests/data
+)/
+'''
+```
+
+</details>
+
+### Lookup hierarchy
+
+Command-line options have defaults that you can see in `--help`.
+A `pyproject.toml` can override those defaults.  Finally, options
+provided by the user on the command line override both.
+
+*Black* will only ever use one `pyproject.toml` file during an entire
+run. It doesn't look for multiple files, and doesn't compose
+configuration from different levels of the file hierarchy.

+## blackd
+
+`blackd` is a small HTTP server that exposes *Black*'s functionality over
+a simple protocol. The main benefit of using it is to avoid paying the
+cost of starting up a new *Black* process every time you want to blacken
+a file.
+
+### Usage
+
+`blackd` is not packaged alongside *Black* by default because it has additional
+dependencies. You will need to do `pip install black[d]` to install it.
+
+You can start the server on the default port, binding only to the local interface
+by running `blackd`. You will see a single line mentioning the server's version,
+and the host and port it's listening on. `blackd` will then print an access log
+similar to most web servers on standard output, merged with any exception traces
+caused by invalid formatting requests.
+
+`blackd` provides even less options than *Black*. You can see them by running
+`blackd --help`:
+
+```text
+Usage: blackd [OPTIONS]
+
+Options:
+  --bind-host TEXT                Address to bind the server to.
+  --bind-port INTEGER             Port to listen on
+  --version                       Show the version and exit.
+  -h, --help                      Show this message and exit.
+```
+
+### Protocol
+
+`blackd` only accepts `POST` requests at the `/` path. The body of the request
+should contain the python source code to be formatted, encoded 
+according to the `charset` field in the `Content-Type` request header. If no
+`charset` is specified, `blackd` assumes `UTF-8`.
+
+There are a few HTTP headers that control how the source is formatted. These
+correspond to command line flags for *Black*. There is one exception to this:
+`X-Protocol-Version` which if present, should have the value `1`, otherwise the
+request is rejected with `HTTP 501` (Not Implemented). 
+
+The headers controlling how code is formatted are:
+
+ - `X-Line-Length`: corresponds to the `--line-length` command line flag.
+ - `X-Skip-String-Normalization`: corresponds to the `--skip-string-normalization`
+    command line flag. If present and its value is not the empty string, no string
+    normalization will be performed.
+ - `X-Skip-Numeric-Underscore-Normalization`: corresponds to the
+    `--skip-numeric-underscore-normalization` command line flag.
+ - `X-Fast-Or-Safe`: if set to `fast`, `blackd` will act as *Black* does when
+    passed the `--fast` command line flag.
+ - `X-Python-Variant`: if set to `pyi`, `blackd` will act as *Black* does when
+    passed the `--pyi` command line flag. Otherwise, its value must correspond to
+    a Python version. If this value represents at least Python 3.6, `blackd` will
+    act as *Black* does when passed the `--py36` command line flag.
+
+If any of these headers are set to invalid values, `blackd` returns a `HTTP 400`
+error response, mentioning the name of the problematic header in the message body.
+
+Apart from the above, `blackd` can produce the following response codes:
+
+ - `HTTP 204`: If the input is already well-formatted. The response body is
+       empty.
+ - `HTTP 200`: If formatting was needed on the input. The response body
+       contains the blackened Python code, and the `Content-Type` header is set
+       accordingly.
+ - `HTTP 400`: If the input contains a syntax error. Details of the error are
+       returned in the response body.
+ - `HTTP 500`: If there was any kind of error while trying to format the input.
+       The response body contains a textual representation of the error.

 ## Change Log
 

-### 18.5b1 (unreleased)
+### 18.9b0
+
+* numeric literals are now formatted by *Black* (#452, #461, #464, #469):
+
+  * numeric literals are normalized to include `_` separators on Python 3.6+ code
+
+  * added `--skip-numeric-underscore-normalization` to disable the above behavior and
+    leave numeric underscores as they were in the input
+
+  * code with `_` in numeric literals is recognized as Python 3.6+
+
+  * most letters in numeric literals are lowercased (e.g., in `1e10`, `0x01`)
+
+  * hexadecimal digits are always uppercased (e.g. `0xBADC0DE`)
+
+* added `blackd`, see [its documentation](#blackd) for more info (#349)
+
+* adjacent string literals are now correctly split into multiple lines (#463)
+
+* trailing comma is now added to single imports that don't fit on a line (#250)
+
+* cache is now populated when `--check` is successful for a file which speeds up
+  consecutive checks of properly formatted unmodified files (#448)
+
+* whitespace at the beginning of the file is now removed (#399)
+
+* fixed mangling [pweave](http://mpastell.com/pweave/) and
+  [Spyder IDE](https://pythonhosted.org/spyder/) special comments (#532)
+
+* fixed unstable formatting when unpacking big tuples (#267)
+
+* fixed parsing of `__future__` imports with renames (#389)
+
+* fixed scope of `# fmt: off` when directly preceding `yield` and other nodes (#385)
+
+* fixed formatting of lambda expressions with default arguments (#468)
+
+* fixed ``async for`` statements: *Black* no longer breaks them into separate
+  lines (#372)
+
+* note: the Vim plugin stopped registering ``,=`` as a default chord as it turned out
+  to be a bad idea (#415)
+
+
+### 18.6b4
+
+* hotfix: don't freeze when multiple comments directly precede `# fmt: off` (#371)
+
+
+### 18.6b3

+
+  * they now correctly work across function/class boundaries (#335)
+
+  * they now work when an indentation block starts with empty lines or misaligned
+    comments (#334)
+
+* made Click not fail on invalid environments; note that Click is right but the
+  likelihood we'll need to access non-ASCII file paths when dealing with Python source
+  code is low (#277)
+
+* fixed improper formatting of f-strings with quotes inside interpolated
+  expressions (#322)
+
+* fixed unnecessary slowdown when long list literals where found in a file
+
+* fixed unnecessary slowdown on AST nodes with very many siblings
+
+* fixed cannibalizing backslashes during string normalization
+
+* fixed a crash due to symbolic links pointing outside of the project directory (#338)
+
+
+### 18.6b2

+* added `-h` equivalent to `--help` (#316)
+
+* fixed improper unmodified file caching when `-S` was used
+
+* fixed extra space in string unpacking (#305)
+
+* fixed formatting of empty triple quoted strings (#313)
+
+* fixed unnecessary slowdown in comment placement calculation on lines without
+  comments
+
+
+### 18.6b1
+
+* hotfix: don't output human-facing information on stdout (#299)
+
+* hotfix: don't output cake emoji on non-zero return code (#300)

+
+* added `--py36` (#249)
