Version 2.15.0 of the openstreetmap-carto was just released
Full changes: https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/compare/v2.14.0...v2.15.0
There were a lot of behind the scenes cleanups to the style, but two notable changes are landuse recolouring and track restyling.
Landuse colours have been all over the place with the style, with no consistency in lightness or colourfulness (chroma).
The recent changes (#599) bring consistent lightness and more consistent chroma to residential, retail, commercial, industrial, farmland and farmyard. I've also started expressing colours in a perceptual colourspace (Lch), although they have to be converted to RGB in the style. Another change is borders, which are now much more subtle, particularly for unnamed landuse. They have also been made consistent across the landuses changed. For farmland, this should help encourage tagging of individual fields.
Track rendering based on tracktype has been nonsensical. You can see an example at https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/136#issuecomment-25240763 of the old types side by side. The changes make it a consistent progression from tracktype 1 to tracktype 5, with alternating short and long dashes for no tracktype. If you don't like the unknown tracktype rendering, go survey it and set it :)
