*Black* ignores previous formatting and applies uniform horizontal

+whitespace can be summarized as: do whatever makes `pycodestyle` happy.
+The coding style used by *Black* can be viewed as a strict subset of
+PEP 8.
As for vertical whitespace, *Black* tries to render one full expression
or simple statement per line. If this fits the allotted line length,
and `'''`). It will replace the latter with the former as long as it
does not result in more backslash escapes than before.
+*Black* also standardizes string prefixes, making them always lowercase.
+On top of that, if your code is already Python 3.6+ only or it's using
+the `unicode_literals` future import, *Black* will remove `u` from the
+string prefix as it is meaningless in those scenarios.
+
The main reason to standardize on a single form of quotes is aesthetics.
Having one kind of quotes everywhere reduces reader distraction.
It will also enable a future version of *Black* to merge consecutive
- `for (...) in (...):`
- `assert (...), (...)`
- `from X import (...)`
+- assignments like:
+ - `target = (...)`
+ - `target: type = (...)`
+ - `some, *un, packing = (...)`
+ - `augmented += (...)`
In those cases, parentheses are removed when the entire statement fits
in one line, or if the inner expression doesn't have any delimiters to
by calling `:BlackUpgrade` and restarting Vim.
If you need to do anything special to make your virtualenv work and
-install *Black* (for example you want to run a version from master), just
+install *Black* (for example you want to run a version from master),
create a virtualenv manually and point `g:black_virtualenv` to it.
The plugin will use it.

+* parentheses are now also managed automatically on the right-hand side

+
+* math operators now use their respective priorities for delimiting multiline
+ expressions (#148)
+
+* empty parentheses in a class definition are now removed (#145, #180)
+
+* string prefixes are now standardized to lowercase and `u` is removed
+ on Python 3.6+ only code and Python 2.7+ code with the `unicode_literals`
+ future import (#188, #198, #199)
+
+* fixed an invalid trailing comma sometimes left in imports (#185)
+
+* fixed non-deterministic formatting when multiple pairs of removable parentheses
+ were used (#183)
+
+* fixed not splitting long from-imports with only a single name
-* Empty parentheses in a class definition are removed (#145, #180)
+* fixed Python 3.6+ file discovery by also looking at function calls with
+ unpacking. This fixed non-deterministic formatting if trailing commas
+ where used both in function signatures with stars and function calls
+ with stars but the former would be reformatted to a single line.
