 * Change exception raised by ``capture.DontReadFromInput.fileno()`` from ``ValueError`` 
   to ``io.UnsupportedOperation``. Thanks `@vlad-dragos`_ for the PR.
 
+* Fix an internal caching issue which could cause hooks from ``conftest.py`` files in
+  sub-directories to be called in other directories incorrectly (`#2016`_).
+  Thanks `@d-b-w`_ for the report and `@nicoddemus`_ for the PR.
 
-* fix `#2013`_: turn RecordedWarning into namedtupe,
-  to give it a comprehensible repr while preventing unwarranted modification
+* fix `#2013`_: turn RecordedWarning into ``namedtuple``
