+** require-final-newline now has two new possible values:
+
+`visit' means add a newline (as an undoable change) if it's needed
+when visiting the file.
+
+`visit-save' means add a newline (as an undoable change) if it's
+needed when visiting the file, and also add a newline if it's needed
+when saving the file.

+** The new option mode-require-final-newline controls how certain
+major modes enable require-final-newline.  Any major mode that's
+designed for a kind of file that should normally end in a newline
+sets require-final-newline based on mode-require-final-newline.
+So you can customize mode-require-final-newline to control what these
+modes do.

 ** When the undo information of the current command gets really large
 (beyond the value of `undo-outer-limit'), Emacs asks you whether to
 discard it or keep it.

-*** Better control over require-final-newline.
-The variable that controls how to handle a final newline when the
-buffer is saved, require-final-newline, is now customizable on a
-per-mode basis through c-require-final-newline.  The default is to set
-it to t only in languages that mandate a final newline in source files
-(C, C++ and Objective-C).
