 Breaking changes
 ----------------
 
+* Archives are now parsed as ``--start-lib`` object files. If a member is neither
+  an ELF relocatable object file nor an LLVM bitcode file, ld.lld will give a warning.
+  (`D119074 <https://reviews.llvm.org/D119074>`_)
 * The GNU ld incompatible ``--no-define-common`` has been removed.
 * The obscure ``-dc``/``-dp`` options have been removed.
+  (`D119108 <https://reviews.llvm.org/D119108>`_)
 * ``-d`` is now ignored.
 * If a prevailing COMDAT group defines STB_WEAK symbol, having a STB_GLOBAL symbol in a non-prevailing group is now rejected with a diagnostic.
