Other Changes
=============
+* By default, pylint does no longer take files starting with ``.#`` into account. Those are
+ considered `emacs file locks`_. This behavior can be reverted by redefining the
+ ``ignore-patterns`` option.
+
+ Closes #367
+
+.. _`emacs file locks`: https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/File-Locks.html
+
* Fixed extremely long processing of long lines with comma's.
Closes #5483
