-**Describe the bug** A clear and concise description of what the bug is.
+<!--
+Please make sure that the bug is not already fixed either in newer versions or the
+current development version. To confirm this, you have three options:
-**To Reproduce** Steps to reproduce the behavior:
+1. Update Black's version if a newer release exists: `pip install -U black`
+2. Use the online formatter at <https://black.vercel.app/?version=main>, which will use
+ the latest main branch.
+3. Or run _Black_ on your machine:
+ - create a new virtualenv (make sure it's the same Python version);
+ - clone this repository;
+ - run `pip install -e .[d]`;
+ - run `pip install -r test_requirements.txt`
+ - make sure it's sane by running `python -m pytest`; and
+ - run `black` like you did last time.
