Regarding "can we do this with the right git flags": When Apache Beam community did something similar to standardize on "Spotless Java Everywhere" [BEAM-4394] they took the following approach <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-4394?focusedCommentId=16495811&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Acomment-tabpanel#comment-16495811> Is there a reason this rebasing via "git checkout --theirs -- and re-run black to format pending changes" approach would not work with black?
Note this is likely orthogonal to the concern about complicating backport / cherrypicking but might smooth the process for open PRs. Quote from relevant BEAM JIRA Comment: The impact on contributors is almost nothing with good communication and timing. 1. Tell everyone that it is happening 2. Turn on enforcement [and run formatter over whole repo] 3. Everyone with open PRs rebases with git checkout --theirs -- which keeps their pending changes 4. Everyone runs the autoformat (they won't go green until they do) Reference on checkout --theirs https://howchoo.com/g/njcyntcxmwq/git-merge-conflicts-rebase-ours-theirs On Wed, Jul 1, 2020 at 6:10 PM Daniel Imberman <daniel.imber...@gmail.com> wrote: > I think that once we add integration tests (which I’ll do now that we have > helm for k8s) and we no longer have to back port this is a great idea. > > via Newton Mail [ > https://cloudmagic.com/k/d/mailapp?ct=dx&cv=10.0.50&pv=10.14.6&source=email_footer_2 > ] > On Wed, Jul 1, 2020 at 4:17 PM, Kaxil Naik <kaxiln...@gmail.com> wrote: > That sounds good.
