 - Added `-IsVivaConnectionsDefaultStartForCompanyPortalSiteEnabled` parameter to `Get-PnPHomeSite` which returns information on whether Viva Connections landing experience is set to the SharePoint home site. [#2779](https://github.com/pnp/powershell/pull/2779)
 - Added `-VivaConnectionsDefaultStart` parameter to `Set-PnPHomeSite` which sets the home site to the provided site collection url and keeps the Viva Connections landing experience to the SharePoint home site. [#2779](https://github.com/pnp/powershell/pull/2779)
 - Added `-LargeList` parameter to `Remove-PnPList` cmdlet which improves the list recycling experience for Lists containing huge number of items. [#2778](https://github.com/pnp/powershell/pull/2778)
+- Added `-CheckinType` parameter to `Add-PnPFile` cmdlet which provides the option to specify the checkin type for a file. The default value is set to `MinorCheckIn`. [#2806](https://github.com/pnp/powershell/pull/2806)
 - Added `-ApplicationId` as alias for `-ClientId` in `Connect-PnPOnline` and `Request-PnPAccessToken` cmdlets.
 
 ### Changed

 - Properties of `Get-PnPAzureADServicePrincipal` are now all typed instead of some of them returning unparsed JSON fragments. [#2717](https://github.com/pnp/powershell/pull/2717)
 - Marked `Get-PnPSubscribeSharePointNewsDigest` and `Set-PnPSubscribeSharePointNewsDigest` as obsolete as the implementation behind these features has been changed in SharePoint Online causing them no longer to work. At present, there's no alternative for this that we can call into thus we will have to remove these in a future version. [#2720](https://github.com/pnp/powershell/pull/2720)
 - Changed `Add-PnPTeamsChannel` to no longer require an `-OwnerUPN` to be provided when specifying `-ChannelType Standard` [#2786](https://github.com/pnp/powershell/pull/2786)
+- Changed `Add-PnPFile` by default to upload a file as a draft with a minor version now instead of publishing it as a major version. `-CheckinType MajorCheckIn` can be used to still upload the file as a major published version [#2806](https://github.com/pnp/powershell/pull/2806)
