 * Specifying a path in `JULIA_DEPOT_PATH` now results in the expansion of empty strings to
   omit the default user depot ([#51448]).
+* Precompilation cache files are now relocatable and their validity is now verified through
+  a content hash of their source files instead of their `mtime` ([#49866]).

 * `copyuntil(out, io, delim)` and `copyline(out, io)` copy data into an `out::IO` stream ([#48273]).
 * `eachrsplit(string, pattern)` iterates split substrings right to left ([#51646]).
 * `Sys.username()` can be used to return the current user's username ([#51897]).
+* `Sys.isreadable(), Sys.iswritable()` can be used to check if the current user has access permissions
+  that permit reading and writing, respectively. ([#53320]).
 * `wrap(Array, m::Union{MemoryRef{T}, Memory{T}}, dims)` is the safe counterpart to `unsafe_wrap` ([#52049]).
 * `GC.logging_enabled()` can be used to test whether GC logging has been enabled via `GC.enable_logging` ([#51647]).

 * `Iterators.cycle(iter, n)` runs over `iter` a fixed number of times, instead of forever ([#47354]).

+* `include_dependency(path; track_content=true)` allows switching from using `mtime`
