+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+You can configure the initial indentation of multiline strings using ``g:python_pep8_indent_multiline_string`` (which can also be set per buffer).
+This defaults to ``0``, which means that multiline strings are not indented.
+``-1`` and positive values will be used as-is, where ``-1`` is a special value for Vim's ``indentexpr``, and will keep the existing indent (using Vim's ``autoindent`` setting).
+``-2`` is meant to be used for strings that are wrapped with ``textwrap.dedent`` etc.  It will add a level of indentation if the multiline string started in the previous line, without any content in it already::
+
+   testdir.makeconftest("""
+       _
+
+With content already, it will be aligned to the opening parenthesis::
+
+   testdir.makeconftest("""def pytest_addoption(parser):
+                        _
+
+Existing indentation (including ``0``) in multiline strings will be kept, so this setting only applies to the indentation of new/empty lines.
