 ### _Black_
 
+- Account for += assignment when deciding whether to split string (#2312)
 - Correct max string length calculation when there are string operators (#2292)
 - Fixed option usage when using the `--code` flag (#2259)
 - Do not call `uvloop.install()` when _Black_ is used as a library (#2303)
