*** Package-vc can copy local changes from existing installations
When installing the latest release of a package, package-vc will propose
copying files from an existing, tarball installation of the same package
with the same version. This is useful if you have started making local
changes to your tarball installation, and then decide to check out the
repository to prepare a patch for the package maintainer.
* New Modes and Packages in Emacs 32.1
* Incompatible Lisp Changes in Emacs 32.1

** New variable 'completion-frontend-properties'.
This variable generalizes the 'completion-lazy-hilit' variable added in
Emacs 30. It allows Lisp programs that present completion candidates
("completion frontends") to provide additional information which can be
used to adjust or optimize completion candidates computation.
* Changes in Emacs 32.1 on Non-Free Operating Systems
