  * #274: Add ~/.config/borgmatic.d as another configuration directory default.
  * #277: Customize Healthchecks log level via borgmatic "--monitoring-verbosity" flag.
+ * #280: Change "exclude_if_present" option to support multiple filenames that indicate a directory
+   should be excluded from backups, rather than just a single filename.
  * For "create" and "prune" actions, no longer list files or show detailed stats at any verbosities
    by default. You can opt back in with "--files" or "--stats" flags.
  * For "list" and "info" actions, show repository names even at verbosity 0.
