-New option @code{-dinclude-settings=INCLUDEFILE.ly}, which causes lilypond
-to include the given file before the score is processed. This allows the
-user to change global settings without the need to change the score itself.
-That way, several different editions/version (e.g. different page sizes)
-can be generated from a file without having to modify the score for each
-version.

-The autobeaming settings syntax has been changed. beatLength,
-beatGrouping, beamSettings, and measureGrouping have all been eliminated.
-Autobeaming is now controlled by baseMoment, beatStructure, and
-beamExceptions. Default settings for each of these properties can be
-stored for any time signature in time-signature-settings, so that
-when the time signature is changed, the autobeaming will automatically
-change. The new syntax should be much easier and require fewer
-overrides.
