In GitLab by [[Gitlab user @tristanvb]](https://gitlab.com/tristanvb) on Aug 4, 2020, 08:13 I believe the original configuration was by [[Gitlab user @tlater]](https://gitlab.com/tlater) and had the specific intent of ensuring that new versions of the linter did not behave drastically different (I think in the current setup, new `pylint` errors need to be explicitly disabled or fixed in the code in order to upgrade `pylint`). Note that `pylint` support predates our usage of `tox`, which might in itself obsolete the complicated `.pylintrc`, but I think this needs to be explicitly confirmed before drastically changing the configuration approach. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
