Files held back for the reason \"host_config\" now go into their own `withheld.hostConfig` list instead of the `credentialNamed` list. The summary still adds the two together in its credential count.\n\nA check that makes sure withheld files are never read now allows these host configuration files to be read.\n\n**Why**\n\nThe summary count stays the same, but the two kinds of held-back file can now be told apart, and host configuration files are no longer treated as off limits for reading.\n\n- Area: Cloud Sync\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5"}
