New Dependency Information
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Remove dependency on ``entrypoints`` and add dependency on
``importlib-metadata`` (only for ``python<3.8``) (See also :issue:`1297`,
:issue:`297`)
- Pyflakes has been updated to >= 2.2.0, < 2.3.0 (See also :issue:`982`)
- pycodestyle has been updated to >= 2.6.0a1, < 2.7.0 (See also :issue:`983`)
Features
~~~~~~~~
- Add ``--extend-exclude`` option to add to ``--exclude`` without overwriting
(See also :issue:`1211`, :issue:`1091`)
- Move argument parsing from ``optparse`` to ``argparse`` (See also
:issue:`939`
- Group plugin options in ``--help`` (See also :issue:`1219`, :issue:`294`)
- Remove parsing of ``verbose`` from configuration files as it was not
consistently applied (See also :issue:`1245`, :issue:`245`)
- Remove parsing of ``output_file`` from configuration files as it was not
consistently applied (See also :issue:`1246`)
- Resolve configuration files relative to ``cwd`` instead of common prefix of
passed filenames. You may need to change ``flake8 subproject`` to
``cd subproject && flake8 .`` (See also :issue:`952`)
- Officially support python3.8 (See also :issue:`963`)
- ``--disable-noqa`` now also disables ``# flake8: noqa`` (See also
:issue:`1296`, :issue:`318`)
- Ensure that a missing file produces a ``E902`` error (See also :issue:`1262`,
:issue:`328`)
- ``# noqa`` comments now apply to all of the lines in an explicit ``\``
continuation or in a line continued by a multi-line string (See also
:issue:`1266`, :issue:`621`)
Bugs Fixed
~~~~~~~~~~
- Fix ``--exclude=./t.py`` to only match ``t.py`` at the top level (See also
:issue:`1208`, :issue:`628`)
- Fix ``--show-source`` when a file is indented with tabs (See also
:issue:`1218`, :issue:`719`)
- Fix crash when ``--max-line-length`` is given a non-integer (See also
:issue:`939`, :issue:`704`)
- Prevent flip-flopping of ``indent_char`` causing extra ``E101`` errors (See
also :issue:`949`, `pycodestyle#886`_)
- Only enable multiprocessing when the method is ``fork`` fixing issues
on macos with python3.8+ (See also :issue:`955`, :issue:`315`) (note: this
fix also landed in 3.7.9)
- ``noqa`` is now only handled by flake8 fixing specific-noqa. Plugins
requesting this parameter will always receive ``False`` (See also
:issue:`1214`, :issue:`1104`)
- Fix duplicate loading of plugins when invoked via ``python -m flake8`` (See
also :issue:`1297`)
- Fix early exit when ``--exit-zero`` and ``--diff`` are provided and the diff
is empty (See also :issue:`970`)
- Consistently split lines when ``\f`` is present when reading from stdin (See
also :issue:`976`, :issue:`202`)

- ``python setup.py flake8`` (setuptools integration) is now deprecated and
will be removed in a future version (See also :issue:`935`, :issue:`1098`)

``type=callable`` (argparse) instead. Support for ``type='string'`` will

instead. Support for ``%default`` will be removed in a future version (See
also :issue:`939`)

argparse action classes instead. This will be removed in a future version
(See also :issue:`939`)
