+
+### Added
+
+* The `uppercase-regex-insert` option controls whether an uppercase hint
+  character will insert the selected text into the prompt in `regex-copy`
+  or `show-urls-copy` mode. It defaults to `true`. ([#2159][2159]).
+
+[2159]: https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/2159

 ### Changed
 
 * The label letters are no longer sorted before being assigned to URLs
-  ([#2140]2140[]).
+  ([#2140][2140]).
 * Sending SIGUSR1/SIGUSR2 to a `foot --server` process now causes
   newly spawned client instances to use the selected theme, instead of
   the original one.
