So these won't go out of date. This does mean the environment has be
setup a bit more carefully so the right version of the tool is used,
but thankfully the build environment is rebuilt on change on RTD anyway.
Also since the HTML docs are known to build fine, let's provide
downloadable HTMLzips of our docs.
This change needs RTD and GH to install Black with the [d] extra so
blackd's help can generated. While editing RTD's config file, let's
migrate the file to a non-deprecated filename.
Also I missed adding AUTHORS.md to the files key in the doc GHA config.
I know I know, this is the second reorganization of the docs. I'm not
saying the first one was bad or anything... but.. actually wait nah,
*it was bad*.
Anyway, welcome to probably my biggest commit. The main thing with this
reorganization was to introduce nesting to the documentation! Having
all of the docs be part of the main TOC was becoming too much. There
wasn't much room to expand either. Finally, the old setup required
a documentation generation step which was just annoying.
The goals of this reorganization was to:
1. Significantly restructure the docs to be discoverable and
understandable
2. Add room for further docs (like guides or contributing docs)
3. Get rid of the doc generation step (it was slow and frustrating)
4. Unblock other improvements and also just make contributing to the
docs easier
Another important change with this is that we are no longer using GitHub
as a documentation host. While GitHub does support Markdown based docs
actually pretty well, the lack of any features outside of GitHub Flavoured
Markdown is quite limiting. ReadTheDocs is just much better suited for
documentation. You can use reST, MyST, CommonMark, and all of their
great features like toctrees and admonitions.
Related to this change, we're adopting MyST as our flavour of Markdown.
MyST introduces neat syntax extensions to Markdown that pretty much
gives us the best of both worlds. The ease of use and simplicity of MD
and the flexibility and expressiveness of reST. Also recommonmark is
deprecated now. This switch was possible now we don't use GH as a docs
host. MyST docs have to be built to really be usable / pretty, so the MD
docs are going to look pretty bad on GH, but that's fine now!
Another thing that should be noted is that the README has been stripped
of most content since it was confusing. Users would read the README and
then think some feature or bug was fixed already and is available in a
release when in reality, they weren't. They were reading effectively
the latest docs without knowing.

FYI: CommonMark is a rationalized version of Markdown syntax

Commit history before merge:
* Switch to MyST-Parser + doc config cleanup
recommonmark is being deprecated in favour of MyST-Parser. This change
is welcomed, especially since MyST-Parser has syntax extensions for the
Commonmark standard. Effectively we get to use a language that's powerful
and expressive like ReST, but get the simplicity of Markdown.
The rest of this effort will be using some MyST features.
This reorganization efforts aims to remove as much duplication as possible.
The regeneration step once needed is gone, significantly simplifing our
Sphinx documentation configuration.
* Tell pipenv we replaced recommonmark for MyST-Parser
Also update `docs/requirements.txt`
* Delete all auto generated content
* Switch prettier for mdformat (plus a few plugins)
**FYI: THIS WAS EFFECTIVELY REVERTED, SEE THIRD TO LAST COMMIT**
prettier doesn't support MyST's syntax extensions which are going to be
used in this reorganization effort so we have to switch formatter.
Unfortanately mdformat's style is different from prettier's so time to
reformat the whole repo too.
We're excluding .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE because I have no idea whether
its changes are safe, so let's play it safe.
* Fix the heading levels in CHANGES.md + a link
MyST-Parser / sphinx's linkcheck complains otherwise.
* Move reference docs into a docs/contributing dir
They're for contributors of Black anyway. Also added a note in the
summary document warning about the lack of attention the reference has
been dealing with.
* Rewrite and setup the new landing page + main TOC
- add some more detail about Black's beta status
- add licensing info
- add external links in the main TOC for GitHub, PyPI, and IRC
- prepare main TOC for new structure
* Break out AUTHORS into its own file
Not only was the AUTHORS list quite long, this makes it easy to include
it in the Sphinx docs with just a simple symlink.
* Add license to docs via a simple include
Yes the document is orphaned but it is linked to in the landing page
(docs/index.rst).
* Add "The Black Code Style" section
This mostly was a restructuring commit, there has been a few updates but
not many. The main goal was to split "current style" and "planned
changes to the style that haven't happened yet" to avoid confusion.
* Add "Getting Started" page
This is basically a quick start + even more. This commit is certainly
one of most creatively involved in this effort.
* Add "Usage and Configuration" section
This commit was as much restructuring as new content. Instead of being
in one giant file, usage and configuration documentation can expand
without bloating a single file.
* Add "Integrations" section
Just a restructuring commit ...
* Add "Guides" section
This is a promising area of documentation that could easily grow in the
future, let's prepare for that!
* Add "Contributing" section
This is also another area that I expect to see significant growth in.
Contributors to Black could definitely do with some more specific docs
that clears up certain parts of our slightly confusing project (it's
only confusing because we're getting big and old!).
* Rewrite CONTRIBUTING.md to just point to RTD
* Rewrite README.md to delegate most info to RTD
* Address feedback + a lot of corrections and edits
I know I said I wanted to do these after landing this but given there's
going to be no time between this being merged and a release getting
pushed, I want these changes to make it in.
- drop the number flag for mdformat - to reduce diffs, see also:
https://mdformat.readthedocs.io/en/stable/users/style.html#ordered-lists
- the GH issue templates should be safe by mdformat, so get rid of the
exclude
- clarify our configuration position - i.e. stop claiming we don't have
many options, instead say we want as little formatting knobs as
possible
- lots and lots of punctuation, spelling, and grammar corrections (thanks
Jelle!)
- use RTD as the source for the CHANGELOG too
- visual style cleanups
- add docs about our .gitignore behaviour
- expand GHA Action docs
- clarify we want the PR number in the CHANGELOG entry
- claify Black's behaviour for with statements post Python 3.9
- italicize a bunch of "Black"s
Thank you goes to Jelle, Taneli (hukkinj1 on GH), Felix
(felix-hilden on GH), and Wouter (wbolster on GH) for the feedback!
* Merge remote-tracking branch 'upstream/master' into reorganize-docs-v2
merge conflicts suck, although these ones weren't too bad.
* Add changelog entry + fix merge conflict resolution error
I consider this important enough to be worthy of a changelog entry :)
* Merge branch 'master' into reorganize-docs-v2

* Actually let's continue using prettier
Prettier works fine for all of the default MyST syntax so let's not
rock the boat as much. Dropping the mdformat commit was merge-conflict
filled so here's additional commit instead.
* Address Cooper's, Taneli's, and Jelle's feedback
Lots of wording improvements by Cooper. Taneli suggested to disable the
enabled by default MyST syntax not supported by Prettier and I agreed.
And Jelle found one more spelling error!
* More minor fixes
flake8-mypy is long dead and shouldn't be used, see
https://github.com/ambv/flake8-mypy. We appear to use pre-commit to run
mypy now anyway.
I ran `pipenv uninstall flake8-mypy`, which seems to have made several
changes to Pipfile.lock. Let me know if there's a better way to do this.

* Bump toml from 0.10.0 to 0.10.1 to fix a bug
* Add tests for TOML parsing and reading
* Fix configuration bug affecting vim plugin
The vim plugin directly calls parse_pyproject and skips the Click processing
, but parse_pyproject assumed that it would only be used before Click processing
and therefore made the config values click friendly. This moves the "make the values
click friendly processing" into read_pyproject_toml which is only called by a Click
callback.
* Please mypy and flake8
* Make most of blib2to3 directly typed and mypyc-compatible
This used a combination of retype and pytype's merge-pyi to do the
initial merges of the stubs, which then required manual tweaking to
make actually typecheck and work with mypyc.

* Make black able to compile and run with mypyc
The changes made fall into a couple categories:
* Fixing actual type mistakes that slip through the cracks
* Working around a couple mypy bugs (the most annoying of which being
that we need to add type annotations in a number of places where
variables are initialized to None)

* add test for special unicode symbol which usual re can not process correctly
add regex lib which supports unicode 12.1.0 standard
replace re usage in project in favor to regex
* #455 fix dependency
Black will cache already formatted files using their file size and
modification timestamp. The cache is per-user and will always be used
unless Black is used with --diff or with code provided via standard
input.
