*Black* is the uncompromising Python code formatter. By using it, you
-agree to cease control over minutiae of hand-formatting. In return,
+agree to cede control over minutiae of hand-formatting. In return,
*Black* gives you speed, determinism, and freedom from `pycodestyle`
nagging about formatting. You will save time and mental energy for
more important matters.
*Black* makes code review faster by producing the smallest diffs
possible.

-*Black* can already successfully format itself and the standard library.
-It also sports a decent test suite. However, it is still very new.
-Things will probably be wonky for a while. This is made explicit by the
-"Alpha" trove classifier, as well as by the "a" in the version number.
-What this means for you is that **until the formatter becomes stable,
-you should expect some formatting to change in the future**.
+---
-Also, as a temporary safety measure, *Black* will check that the
-reformatted code still produces a valid AST that is equivalent to the
-original. This slows it down. If you're feeling confident, use
-``--fast``.
+## Installation and usage
+
+### Installation
+*Black* can be installed by running `pip install black`. It requires
+Python 3.6.0+ to run but you can reformat Python 2 code with it, too.
-## Usage
-*Black* can be installed by running `pip install black`.
+### Usage
+To get started right away with sensible defaults:
+
+```
+black {source_file_or_directory}
```
+
+### Command line options
+
+Black doesn't provide many options. You can list them by running
+`black --help`:
+
+```text
black [OPTIONS] [SRC]...
Options:
-l, --line-length INTEGER Where to wrap around. [default: 88]
+ --py36 Allow using Python 3.6-only syntax on all input
+ files. This will put trailing commas in function
+ signatures and calls also after *args and
+ **kwargs. [default: per-file auto-detection]
+ --pyi Format all input files like typing stubs
+ regardless of file extension (useful when piping
+ source on standard input).
+ -S, --skip-string-normalization
+ Don't normalize string quotes or prefixes.
+ --check Don't write the files back, just return the
+ status. Return code 0 means nothing would
+ change. Return code 1 means some files would be
+ reformatted. Return code 123 means there was an
+ internal error.
+ --diff Don't write the files back, just output a diff
+ for each file on stdout.
--fast / --safe If --fast given, skip temporary sanity checks.
[default: --safe]
+ --include TEXT A regular expression that matches files and
+ directories that should be included on
+ recursive searches. On Windows, use forward
+ slashes for directories. [default: \.pyi?$]
+ --exclude TEXT A regular expression that matches files and
+ directories that should be excluded on
+ recursive searches. On Windows, use forward
+ slashes for directories. [default:
+ build/|buck-out/|dist/|_build/|\.git/|\.hg/|
+ \.mypy_cache/|\.tox/|\.venv/]
+ -q, --quiet Don't emit non-error messages to stderr. Errors
+ are still emitted, silence those with
+ 2>/dev/null.
--version Show the version and exit.
--help Show this message and exit.
```
+*Black* is a well-behaved Unix-style command-line tool:
+* it does nothing if no sources are passed to it;
+* it will read from standard input and write to standard output if `-`
+ is used as the filename;
+* it only outputs messages to users on standard error;
+* exits with code 0 unless an internal error occurred (or `--check` was
+ used).
+
-## The philosophy behind *Black*
+### NOTE: This is a beta product
+
+*Black* is already successfully used by several projects, small and big.
+It also sports a decent test suite. However, it is still very new.
+Things will probably be wonky for a while. This is made explicit by the
+"Beta" trove classifier, as well as by the "b" in the version number.
+What this means for you is that **until the formatter becomes stable,
+you should expect some formatting to change in the future**. That being
+said, no drastic stylistic changes are planned, mostly responses to bug
+reports.
+
+Also, as a temporary safety measure, *Black* will check that the
+reformatted code still produces a valid AST that is equivalent to the
+original. This slows it down. If you're feeling confident, use
+``--fast``.
+
+
+## The *Black* code style
*Black* reformats entire files in place. It is not configurable. It
doesn't take previous formatting into account. It doesn't reformat
the same effect, as a courtesy for straddling code.
-### How *Black* formats files
+### How *Black* wraps lines
*Black* ignores previous formatting and applies uniform horizontal
and vertical whitespace to your code. The rules for horizontal
-whitespace are pretty obvious and can be summarized as: do whatever
-makes `pycodestyle` happy.
+whitespace can be summarized as: do whatever makes `pycodestyle` happy.
+The coding style used by *Black* can be viewed as a strict subset of
+PEP 8.
As for vertical whitespace, *Black* tries to render one full expression
or simple statement per line. If this fits the allotted line length,
great.
```py3
# in:
+
l = [1,
2,
3,
]
# out:
+
l = [1, 2, 3]
```
brackets and put that in a separate indented line.
```py3
# in:
-l = [[n for n in list_bosses()], [n for n in list_employees()]]
+
+TracebackException.from_exception(exc, limit, lookup_lines, capture_locals)
# out:
-l = [
- [n for n in list_bosses()], [n for n in list_employees()]
-]
+
+TracebackException.from_exception(
+ exc, limit, lookup_lines, capture_locals
+)
```
If that still doesn't fit the bill, it will decompose the internal
separate lines.
```py3
# in:
-def very_important_function(template: str, *variables, *, file: os.PathLike, debug: bool = False):
+
+def very_important_function(template: str, *variables, file: os.PathLike, debug: bool = False):
"""Applies `variables` to the `template` and writes to `file`."""
with open(file, 'w') as f:
...
# out:
+
def very_important_function(
template: str,
*variables,
- *,
file: os.PathLike,
debug: bool = False,
):
"""Applies `variables` to the `template` and writes to `file`."""
- with open(file, 'w') as f:
+ with open(file, "w") as f:
...
```
indentation level (like the arguments list and the docstring in the
example above).
-Unnecessary trailing commas are removed if an expression fits in one
-line. This makes it 1% more likely that your line won't exceed the
-allotted line length limit.
+If a data structure literal (tuple, list, set, dict) or a line of "from"
+imports cannot fit in the allotted length, it's always split into one
+element per line. This minimizes diffs as well as enables readers of
+code to find which commit introduced a particular entry. This also
+makes *Black* compatible with [isort](https://pypi.org/p/isort/) with
+the following configuration.
-*Black* avoids spurious vertical whitespace. This is in the spirit of
-PEP 8 which says that in-function vertical whitespace should only be
-used sparingly. One exception is control flow statements: *Black* will
-always emit an extra empty line after ``return``, ``raise``, ``break``,
-``continue``, and ``yield``. This is to make changes in control flow
-more prominent to readers of your code.
+<details>
+<summary>A compatible `.isort.cfg`</summary>
-That's it. The rest of the whitespace formatting rules follow PEP 8 and
-are designed to keep `pycodestyle` quiet.
+```
+[settings]
+multi_line_output=3
+include_trailing_comma=True
+force_grid_wrap=0
+combine_as_imports=True
+line_length=88
+```
+The equivalent command line is:
+```
+$ isort --multi-line=3 --trailing-comma --force-grid-wrap=0 --combine-as --line-width=88 [ file.py ]
+```
+</details>
### Line length
bother you if you overdo it by a few km/h".
-### Editor integration
+### Empty lines
+
+*Black* avoids spurious vertical whitespace. This is in the spirit of
+PEP 8 which says that in-function vertical whitespace should only be
+used sparingly.
+
+*Black* will allow single empty lines inside functions, and single and
+double empty lines on module level left by the original editors, except
+when they're within parenthesized expressions. Since such expressions
+are always reformatted to fit minimal space, this whitespace is lost.
+
+It will also insert proper spacing before and after function definitions.
+It's one line before and after inner functions and two lines before and
+after module-level functions and classes. *Black* will not put empty
+lines between function/class definitions and standalone comments that
+immediately precede the given function/class.
+
+*Black* will enforce single empty lines between a class-level docstring
+and the first following field or method. This conforms to
+[PEP 257](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0257/#multi-line-docstrings).
+
+*Black* won't insert empty lines after function docstrings unless that
+empty line is required due to an inner function starting immediately
+after.
+
+
+### Trailing commas
+
+*Black* will add trailing commas to expressions that are split
+by comma where each element is on its own line. This includes function
+signatures.
+
+Unnecessary trailing commas are removed if an expression fits in one
+line. This makes it 1% more likely that your line won't exceed the
+allotted line length limit. Moreover, in this scenario, if you added
+another argument to your call, you'd probably fit it in the same line
+anyway. That doesn't make diffs any larger.
+
+One exception to removing trailing commas is tuple expressions with
+just one element. In this case *Black* won't touch the single trailing
+comma as this would unexpectedly change the underlying data type. Note
+that this is also the case when commas are used while indexing. This is
+a tuple in disguise: ```numpy_array[3, ]```.
+
+One exception to adding trailing commas is function signatures
+containing `*`, `*args`, or `**kwargs`. In this case a trailing comma
+is only safe to use on Python 3.6. *Black* will detect if your file is
+already 3.6+ only and use trailing commas in this situation. If you
+wonder how it knows, it looks for f-strings and existing use of trailing
+commas in function signatures that have stars in them. In other words,
+if you'd like a trailing comma in this situation and *Black* didn't
+recognize it was safe to do so, put it there manually and *Black* will
+keep it.
+
+
+### Strings
+
+*Black* prefers double quotes (`"` and `"""`) over single quotes (`'`
+and `'''`). It will replace the latter with the former as long as it
+does not result in more backslash escapes than before.
+
+*Black* also standardizes string prefixes, making them always lowercase.
+On top of that, if your code is already Python 3.6+ only or it's using
+the `unicode_literals` future import, *Black* will remove `u` from the
+string prefix as it is meaningless in those scenarios.
+
+The main reason to standardize on a single form of quotes is aesthetics.
+Having one kind of quotes everywhere reduces reader distraction.
+It will also enable a future version of *Black* to merge consecutive
+string literals that ended up on the same line (see
+[#26](https://github.com/ambv/black/issues/26) for details).
+
+Why settle on double quotes? They anticipate apostrophes in English
+text. They match the docstring standard described in PEP 257. An
+empty string in double quotes (`""`) is impossible to confuse with
+a one double-quote regardless of fonts and syntax highlighting used.
+On top of this, double quotes for strings are consistent with C which
+Python interacts a lot with.
+
+On certain keyboard layouts like US English, typing single quotes is
+a bit easier than double quotes. The latter requires use of the Shift
+key. My recommendation here is to keep using whatever is faster to type
+and let *Black* handle the transformation.
+
+If you are adopting *Black* in a large project with pre-existing string
+conventions (like the popular ["single quotes for data, double quotes for
+human-readable strings"](https://stackoverflow.com/a/56190)), you can
+pass `--skip-string-normalization` on the command line. This is meant as
+an adoption helper, avoid using this for new projects.
+
+
+### Line breaks & binary operators
+
+*Black* will break a line before a binary operator when splitting a block
+of code over multiple lines. This is so that *Black* is compliant with the
+recent changes in the [PEP 8](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#should-a-line-break-before-or-after-a-binary-operator)
+style guide, which emphasizes that this approach improves readability.
+
+This behaviour may raise ``W503 line break before binary operator`` warnings in
+style guide enforcement tools like Flake8. Since ``W503`` is not PEP 8 compliant,
+you should tell Flake8 to ignore these warnings.
+
+
+### Slices
+
+PEP 8 [recommends](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#whitespace-in-expressions-and-statements)
+to treat ``:`` in slices as a binary operator with the lowest priority, and to
+leave an equal amount of space on either side, except if a parameter is omitted
+(e.g. ``ham[1 + 1 :]``). It also states that for extended slices, both ``:``
+operators have to have the same amount of spacing, except if a parameter is
+omitted (``ham[1 + 1 ::]``). *Black* enforces these rules consistently.
+
+This behaviour may raise ``E203 whitespace before ':'`` warnings in style guide
+enforcement tools like Flake8. Since ``E203`` is not PEP 8 compliant, you should
+tell Flake8 to ignore these warnings.
+
+
+### Parentheses
+
+Some parentheses are optional in the Python grammar. Any expression can
+be wrapped in a pair of parentheses to form an atom. There are a few
+interesting cases:
+
+- `if (...):`
+- `while (...):`
+- `for (...) in (...):`
+- `assert (...), (...)`
+- `from X import (...)`
+- assignments like:
+ - `target = (...)`
+ - `target: type = (...)`
+ - `some, *un, packing = (...)`
+ - `augmented += (...)`
+
+In those cases, parentheses are removed when the entire statement fits
+in one line, or if the inner expression doesn't have any delimiters to
+further split on. If there is only a single delimiter and the expression
+starts or ends with a bracket, the parenthesis can also be successfully
+omitted since the existing bracket pair will organize the expression
+neatly anyway. Otherwise, the parentheses are added.
+
+Please note that *Black* does not add or remove any additional nested
+parentheses that you might want to have for clarity or further
+code organization. For example those parentheses are not going to be
+removed:
+```py3
+return not (this or that)
+decision = (maybe.this() and values > 0) or (maybe.that() and values < 0)
+```
+
+
+### Call chains
+
+Some popular APIs, like ORMs, use call chaining. This API style is known
+as a [fluent interface](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluent_interface).
+*Black* formats those by treating dots that follow a call or an indexing
+operation like a very low priority delimiter. It's easier to show the
+behavior than to explain it. Look at the example:
+```py3
+def example(session):
+ result = (
+ session.query(models.Customer.id)
+ .filter(
+ models.Customer.account_id == account_id,
+ models.Customer.email == email_address,
+ )
+ .order_by(models.Customer.id.asc())
+ .all()
+ )
+```
+
+
+### Typing stub files
+
+PEP 484 describes the syntax for type hints in Python. One of the
+use cases for typing is providing type annotations for modules which
+cannot contain them directly (they might be written in C, or they might
+be third-party, or their implementation may be overly dynamic, and so on).
+
+To solve this, [stub files with the `.pyi` file
+extension](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0484/#stub-files) can be
+used to describe typing information for an external module. Those stub
+files omit the implementation of classes and functions they
+describe, instead they only contain the structure of the file (listing
+globals, functions, and classes with their members). The recommended
+code style for those files is more terse than PEP 8:
+
+* prefer `...` on the same line as the class/function signature;
+* avoid vertical whitespace between consecutive module-level functions,
+ names, or methods and fields within a single class;
+* use a single blank line between top-level class definitions, or none
+ if the classes are very small.
+
+*Black* enforces the above rules. There are additional guidelines for
+formatting `.pyi` file that are not enforced yet but might be in
+a future version of the formatter:
+
+* all function bodies should be empty (contain `...` instead of the body);
+* do not use docstrings;
+* prefer `...` over `pass`;
+* for arguments with a default, use `...` instead of the actual default;
+* avoid using string literals in type annotations, stub files support
+ forward references natively (like Python 3.7 code with `from __future__
+ import annotations`);
+* use variable annotations instead of type comments, even for stubs that
+ target older versions of Python;
+* for arguments that default to `None`, use `Optional[]` explicitly;
+* use `float` instead of `Union[int, float]`.
+
+
+## Editor integration
+
+### Emacs
+
+Use [proofit404/blacken](https://github.com/proofit404/blacken).
+
+
+### PyCharm
+
+1. Install `black`.
+
+```console
+$ pip install black
+```
+
+2. Locate your `black` installation folder.
+
+ On macOS / Linux / BSD:
+
+```console
+$ which black
+/usr/local/bin/black # possible location
+```
+
+ On Windows:
+
+```console
+$ where black
+%LocalAppData%\Programs\Python\Python36-32\Scripts\black.exe # possible location
+```
+
+3. Open External tools in PyCharm with `File -> Settings -> Tools -> External Tools`.
+
+4. Click the + icon to add a new external tool with the following values:
+ - Name: Black
+ - Description: Black is the uncompromising Python code formatter.
+ - Program: <install_location_from_step_2>
+ - Arguments: $FilePath$
+
+5. Format the currently opened file by selecting `Tools -> External Tools -> black`.
+ - Alternatively, you can set a keyboard shortcut by navigating to `Preferences -> Keymap -> External Tools -> External Tools - Black`.
+
+
+### Vim
+
+Commands and shortcuts:
+
+* `,=` or `:Black` to format the entire file (ranges not supported);
+* `:BlackUpgrade` to upgrade *Black* inside the virtualenv;
+* `:BlackVersion` to get the current version of *Black* inside the
+ virtualenv.
+
+Configuration:
+* `g:black_fast` (defaults to `0`)
+* `g:black_linelength` (defaults to `88`)
+* `g:black_virtualenv` (defaults to `~/.vim/black`)
+
+To install with [vim-plug](https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug):
+
+```
+Plug 'ambv/black',
+```
+
+or with [Vundle](https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim):
+
+```
+Plugin 'ambv/black'
+```
+
+or you can copy the plugin from [plugin/black.vim](https://github.com/ambv/black/tree/master/plugin/black.vim).
+Let me know if this requires any changes to work with Vim 8's builtin
+`packadd`, or Pathogen, and so on.
+
+This plugin **requires Vim 7.0+ built with Python 3.6+ support**. It
+needs Python 3.6 to be able to run *Black* inside the Vim process which
+is much faster than calling an external command.
+
+On first run, the plugin creates its own virtualenv using the right
+Python version and automatically installs *Black*. You can upgrade it later
+by calling `:BlackUpgrade` and restarting Vim.
+
+If you need to do anything special to make your virtualenv work and
+install *Black* (for example you want to run a version from master),
+create a virtualenv manually and point `g:black_virtualenv` to it.
+The plugin will use it.
+
+To run *Black* on save, add the following line to `.vimrc` or `init.vim`:
+
+```
+autocmd BufWritePost *.py execute ':Black'
+```
+
+**How to get Vim with Python 3.6?**
+On Ubuntu 17.10 Vim comes with Python 3.6 by default.
+On macOS with Homebrew run: `brew install vim --with-python3`.
+When building Vim from source, use:
+`./configure --enable-python3interp=yes`. There's many guides online how
+to do this.
-There is currently no integration with any text editors. Vim and
-Atom/Nuclide integration is planned by the author, others will require
-external contributions.
+
+### Visual Studio Code
+
+Use [joslarson.black-vscode](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=joslarson.black-vscode).
+
+
+### SublimeText 3
+
+Use [sublack plugin](https://github.com/jgirardet/sublack).
+
+
+### IPython Notebook Magic
+
+Use [blackcellmagic](https://github.com/csurfer/blackcellmagic).
+
+
+### Other editors
+
+Atom/Nuclide integration is planned by the author, others will
+require external contributions.
Patches welcome! ✨ 🍰 ✨
+Any tool that can pipe code through *Black* using its stdio mode (just
+[use `-` as the file name](http://www.tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/special-chars.html#DASHREF2)).
+The formatted code will be returned on stdout (unless `--check` was
+passed). *Black* will still emit messages on stderr but that shouldn't
+affect your use case.
+
+This can be used for example with PyCharm's [File Watchers](https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/file-watchers.html).
+
+
+## Version control integration
+
+Use [pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com/). Once you [have it
+installed](https://pre-commit.com/#install), add this to the
+`.pre-commit-config.yaml` in your repository:
+```yaml
+repos:
+- repo: https://github.com/ambv/black
+ rev: stable
+ hooks:
+ - id: black
+ args: [--line-length=88, --safe]
+ language_version: python3.6
+```
+Then run `pre-commit install` and you're ready to go.
+
+`args` in the above config is optional but shows you how you can change
+the line length if you really need to. If you're already using Python
+3.7, switch the `language_version` accordingly. Finally, `stable` is a tag
+that is pinned to the latest release on PyPI. If you'd rather run on
+master, this is also an option.
+
+
+## Ignoring unmodified files
+
+*Black* remembers files it has already formatted, unless the `--diff` flag is used or
+code is passed via standard input. This information is stored per-user. The exact
+location of the file depends on the black version and the system on which black
+is run. The file is non-portable. The standard location on common operating systems
+is:
+
+* Windows: `C:\\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\black\black\Cache\<version>\cache.<line-length>.pickle`
+* macOS: `/Users/<username>/Library/Caches/black/<version>/cache.<line-length>.pickle`
+* Linux: `/home/<username>/.cache/black/<version>/cache.<line-length>.pickle`

-## This tool requires Python 3.6.0+ to run
-
-But you can reformat Python 2 code with it, too. *Black* is able to parse
-all of the new syntax supported on Python 3.6 but also *effectively all*
-the Python 2 syntax at the same time, as long as you're not using print
-statements.
-
-By making the code exclusively Python 3.6+, I'm able to focus on the
-quality of the formatting and re-use all the nice features of the new
-releases (check out [pathlib](docs.python.org/3/library/pathlib.html) or

+* Python grammar pickle caches are stored with the formatting caches, making
+ *Black* work in environments where site-packages is not user-writable (#192)
+

+
+* fixed unstable formatting when inline comments were moved around in
+ a trailer that was omitted from line splitting on a large expression
+ (#238)
+
+* fixed extra empty line between a class declaration and the first
+ method if no class docstring or fields are present (#219)
+
+* fixed extra empty line between a function signature and an inner

+
+### 18.5b0
+
+* call chains are now formatted according to the
+ [fluent interfaces](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluent_interface)
+ style (#67)
+
+* data structure literals (tuples, lists, dictionaries, and sets) are
+ now also always exploded like imports when they don't fit in a single
+ line (#152)
+
+* slices are now formatted according to PEP 8 (#178)
+
+* parentheses are now also managed automatically on the right-hand side
+ of assignments and return statements (#140)
+
+* math operators now use their respective priorities for delimiting multiline
+ expressions (#148)
+
+* optional parentheses are now omitted on expressions that start or end
+ with a bracket and only contain a single operator (#177)
+
+* empty parentheses in a class definition are now removed (#145, #180)
+
+* string prefixes are now standardized to lowercase and `u` is removed
+ on Python 3.6+ only code and Python 2.7+ code with the `unicode_literals`
+ future import (#188, #198, #199)
+
+* typing stub files (`.pyi`) are now formatted in a style that is consistent
+ with PEP 484 (#207, #210)

+ parentheses in long assignments (#215)
+
+* fixed not splitting long from-imports with only a single name
+
+* fixed Python 3.6+ file discovery by also looking at function calls with
+ unpacking. This fixed non-deterministic formatting if trailing commas
+ where used both in function signatures with stars and function calls
+ with stars but the former would be reformatted to a single line.
+
+* fixed crash on dealing with optional parentheses (#193)
+
+* fixed "is", "is not", "in", and "not in" not considered operators for

+
+### 18.4a4

+ won't be reformatted again (#109)
+
+* `--check` and `--diff` are no longer mutually exclusive (#149)

+* Black no longer enforces putting empty lines behind control flow statements
+ (#90)
+
+* Black now splits imports like "Mode 3 + trailing comma" of isort (#127)

+
+* fixed placement of dictionary unpacking inside dictionary literals (#111)
+
+* Vim plugin now works on Windows, too
+
+* fixed unstable formatting when encountering unnecessarily escaped quotes

+ better comply with PEP 8 (#73)
+
+* standardize string literals to use double quotes (almost) everywhere
+ (#75)
+
+* fixed handling of standalone comments within nested bracketed
+ expressions; Black will no longer produce super long lines or put all
+ standalone comments at the end of the expression (#22)
+
+* fixed 18.3a4 regression: don't crash and burn on empty lines with
+ trailing whitespace (#80)
+
+* fixed 18.3a4 regression: `# yapf: disable` usage as trailing comment
+ would cause Black to not emit the rest of the file (#95)
+
+* when CTRL+C is pressed while formatting many files, Black no longer
+ freaks out with a flurry of asyncio-related exceptions
+
+* only allow up to two empty lines on module level and only single empty
+ lines within functions (#74)
+
+
+### 18.3a4
+
+* `# fmt: off` and `# fmt: on` are implemented (#5)
+
+* automatic detection of deprecated Python 2 forms of print statements
+ and exec statements in the formatted file (#49)
+
+* use proper spaces for complex expressions in default values of typed
+ function arguments (#60)

+ (#19)
+
+* added ability to pipe formatting from stdin to stdin (#25)
+
+* restored ability to format code with legacy usage of `async` as
+ a name (#20, #42)
+
+* even better handling of numpy-style array indexing (#33, again)
+
+
+### 18.3a2
+
+* changed positioning of binary operators to occur at beginning of lines
+ instead of at the end, following [a recent change to PEP8](https://github.com/python/peps/commit/c59c4376ad233a62ca4b3a6060c81368bd21e85b)
+ (#21)
+
+* ignore empty bracket pairs while splitting. This avoids very weirdly
+ looking formattings (#34, #35)

+
+* if top level functions were separated by a comment, don't put four
+ empty lines after the upper function

+
+
+### 18.3a1
+
+* added `--check`
+
+* only put trailing commas in function signatures and calls if it's
+ safe to do so. If the file is Python 3.6+ it's always safe, otherwise
+ only safe if there are no `*args` or `**kwargs` used in the signature
+ or call. (#8)
+
+* fixed invalid spacing of dots in relative imports (#6, #13)
+
+* fixed invalid splitting after comma on unpacked variables in for-loops

+ arguments (#14, #17)
+
+* fixed spurious space after unary operators when the operand was
+ a complex expression (#15)
+
