Highlights

The no-unexpected-multiline rule has been updated to check regular expression literals with d and v flags.

/* eslint no-unexpected-multiline: "error" */

// Unexpected newline between numerator and division operator
foo = bar
/regex/v.exec(baz).forEach(qux);

The following rules have also been updated to avoid incorrect or unexpected behavior in some edge cases:

• new-cap
• no-extra-bind
• no-unreachable
• prefer-object-has-own
