# ESLint v4.8.0 released

We just pushed ESLint v4.8.0, which is a minor release upgrade of ESLint. This release adds some new features and fixes several bugs found in the previous release.


## Highlights

### --report-unused-disable-directives

This release includes a new CLI option that, when on, reports unused `eslint-disable` directives! Running this periodically will ensure that all `eslint-diable` comments are still relevant and up to date.

Please see the [documentation](https://eslint.org/docs/user-guide/command-line-interface#--report-unused-disable-directives) for more information.<commit_msg>Fix typo in v4.8.0 release post<commit_after>---
