I've got three days' holiday including New Year's Day.

I've got three days' holiday including New Year's Day.


I have seen this sentence and then I was wondering if I can also put a comma in front of including and there is difference in meaning?


I've got three days' holiday, including New Year's Day.


And I think that 'holiday including' comes from 'holiday that includes' and

'holiday, including' comes from 'holiday, which includes'.

Is this right?


And then if there is no meaning difference between them, can I say that sometimes there is no meaning difference between defining relative clauses and non-defining relative clauses?


What do you native English speakers think?


Thank you so much as usual!
