 Most likely because it is ignored in `.gitignore` or excluded with configuration. See

 for details.
 
+## Why is my Jupyter Notebook cell not formatted?
+
+_Black_ is timid about formatting Jupyter Notebooks. Cells containing any of the
+following will not be formatted:
+
+- automagics (e.g. `pip install black`)
+- non-Python cell magics (e.g. `%%writeline`)
+- multiline magics, e.g.:
+
+  ```python
+  %timeit f(1, \

+- code which `IPython`'s `TransformerManager` would transform magics into, e.g.:
+
+  ```python
+  get_ipython().system('ls')
+  ```
+
+- invalid syntax, as it can't be safely distinguished from automagics in the absence of
+  a running `IPython` kernel.

+## Can I run Black with PyPy?
+
+Yes, there is support for PyPy 3.7 and higher. You cannot format Python 2 files under

+_Black_ is an autoformatter, not a Python linter or interpreter. Detecting all syntax

+CPython doesn't accept.
