Subject: Vim plugin: allow using system black rather than virtualenv (#3309)
X-Git-Url: https://git.madduck.net/etc/vim.git/commitdiff_plain/4bb6e4f64ab3820ab9fae6716cd59479d34b7edf

Vim plugin: allow using system black rather than virtualenv (#3309)

Provide a configuration parameter to the Vim plugin which will allow the
plugin to skip setting up a virtualenv. This is useful when there is a
system installation of black (e.g. from a Linux distribution) which the
user prefers to use.

Using a virtualenv remains the default.

- Fixes #3308
