+- An `include` directive with no argument now gives consistent error messages.
+
+- journal format's `include` directive no longer excludes paths containing dotted directories/files.
+  1.50-1.50.3 contained an overzealous workaround that sometimes wrongly excluded paths containing a dot dir or dot file.
+  Now the pre-1.50 behaviour is restored
+  (`*` and `**` generally avoid dot files and dot directories, except `**` will search non-top-level dot directories).
+  [#2498]
+
+- Symbolic links found by `include` directives are once again shown as-is, not dereferenced.
+  (1.50-1.50.3 showed them dereferenced, eg in `hledger files` output.)
+
+  There is some related new behaviour: each time an include directive is parsed,
+  all the parent file paths and the new include file path(s) are re-canonicalised.
+  Previous hledger versions did not do this; it's expected to be unnoticeable,
+  but if you notice any slowdown caused by having many include directives and a slow filesystem,
+  please report it.
