 ----
 NOW:
 In fact, I found the right way is patch doc string instead of code.

 I have a simple right (new) pull in gihub 14344

 I have a simple pull in gihub  # 14339
 
[https://github.com/django/django/pull/14339/commits/86e0ec9df0b5ed7a9160c10974bf1adef19eb539]


 {{{
 def encode(self, i):
       neg, value = self.convert(i, self.decimal_digits, self.digits, '-')
 }}}


 try and know that arg '-' should be self.sign:


 {{{
 In [1]: from django.utils import baseconv

 In [2]: base11 = baseconv.BaseConverter('0123456789-', sign='$')

 In [3]: base11.encode('$1234')

 ValueError: substring not found
 }}}
