### Notable Changes

- **cli**:
  - Added a new flag (`--trace-uncaught`) that makes Node.js print the stack
    trace at the time of throwing uncaught exceptions, rather than at the
    creation of the `Error` object, if there is any. This is disabled by default
    because it affects GC behavior (Anna Henningsen) [#30025](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/30025).
- **crypto**:
  - Added `Hash.prototype.copy()` method. It returns a new `Hash` object with
    its internal state cloned from the original one (Ben Noordhuis) [#29910](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/29910).
- **dgram**:
  - Added source-specific multicast support. This adds methods to Datagram
    sockets to support [RFC 4607](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4607) for IPv4
    and IPv6 (Lucas Pardue) [#15735](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/15735).
- **fs**:
  - Added a `bufferSize` option to `fs.opendir()`. It allows to control the
    number of entries that are buffered internally when reading from the
    directory (Anna Henningsen) [#30114](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/30114).
- **meta**:
  - Added [Chengzhong Wu](https://github.com/legendecas) to collaborators [#30115](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/30115).
