Black 26.1.0 is out.

For those who don't know, they use CalVer, and a new year means a new style with some formatting changes. So far they look good to me.

#Python #Black #CalVer

A diff of some changes.

For example, parentheses removed from:

(x0, y0, x1, y1) = extents

To give:

x0, y0, x1, y1 = extents

And some things made more compact, such as these three lines:

BytesIO(
base64.b64decode(
b"""
then a big multiline byte string

Becoming one:

BytesIO(base64.b64decode(b"""
then the big multiline byte string
