Compare Source

2.17.7 is the last release before we only support pylint 3.0.0 or superior and python 3.8 or superior.

v2.17.0

Compare Source

2.17 is a small release that is the first to support python 3.11 officially
with the addition of TryStar nodes.

There's still two new default checks: bad-chained-comparison and
implicit-flag-alias, one of them already fixed a previously undetected
bug in sentry.

Thanks to the community effort our documentation is almost complete,
and almost all messages should have a proper documentation now.
A big thank you to everyone who participated !

The next release is going to be 3.0.0, bring breaking changes and
enact long announced deprecations. There's going to be frequent beta
releases, before the official releases, everyone is welcome to try the betas
so we find problems before the actual release.
