------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  This page documents backwards-incompatible changes made during the evolution of CouchDB. While not all such changes will necessarily affect all users, most of them probably will. This page should show you what changed and how you'll need to adapt your code.
+ 
+ == Changes Between 0.9.x and ??? ==
+ 
+ === Modular Configuration Directories ===
+ 
+ CouchDB now loads configuration from the following places (glob(7) syntax) in order:
+ 
+  * `PREFIX/default.ini`
+  * `PREFIX/default.d/*`
+  * `PREFIX/local.ini`
+  * `PREFIX/local.d/*`
+ 
+ The configuration options for `couchdb` script have changed to:
+ 
+ {{{
+   -a FILE     add configuration FILE to chain
+   -n          reset configuration file chain (including system default)
+   -c          print configuration file chain and exit
+ }}}
