Changelog
### 24.2.0
```
Stable style
- Fixed a bug where comments where mistakenly removed along with redundant parentheses
(4218)
Preview style
- Move the `hug_parens_with_braces_and_square_brackets` feature to the unstable style
due to an outstanding crash and proposed formatting tweaks (4198)
- Fixed a bug where base expressions caused inconsistent formatting of \*\* in tenary
expression (4154)
- Checking for newline before adding one on docstring that is almost at the line limit
(4185)
- Remove redundant parentheses in `case` statement `if` guards (4214).
Configuration
- Fix issue where _Black_ would ignore input files in the presence of symlinks (4222)
- _Black_ now ignores `pyproject.toml` that is missing a `tool.black` section when
discovering project root and configuration. Since _Black_ continues to use version
control as an indicator of project root, this is expected to primarily change behavior
for users in a monorepo setup (desirably). If you wish to preserve previous behavior,
simply add an empty `[tool.black]` to the previously discovered `pyproject.toml`
(4204)
Output
- Black will swallow any `SyntaxWarning`s or `DeprecationWarning`s produced by the `ast`
module when performing equivalence checks (4189)
Integrations
- Add a JSONSchema and provide a validate-pyproject entry-point (4181)
```
### 24.1.1
```
Bugfix release to fix a bug that made Black unusable on certain file systems
with strict limits on path length.
Preview style
- Consistently add trailing comma on typed parameters (4164)
Configuration
- Shorten the length of the name of the cache file to fix crashes on file systems that
do not support long paths (4176)
```
### 24.1.0
```
Highlights
This release introduces the new 2024 stable style (4106), stabilizing the following
changes:
- Add parentheses around `if`-`else` expressions (2278)
- Dummy class and function implementations consisting only of `...` are formatted more
compactly (3796)
- If an assignment statement is too long, we now prefer splitting on the right-hand side
(3368)
- Hex codes in Unicode escape sequences are now standardized to lowercase (2916)
- Allow empty first lines at the beginning of most blocks (3967, 4061)
- Add parentheses around long type annotations (3899)
- Enforce newline after module docstrings (3932, 4028)

- Wrap multiple context managers in parentheses if combined in a single `with` statement
(3489)
- Fix bug in line length calculations for power operations (3942)
- Add trailing commas to collection literals even if there's a comment after the last
entry (3393)
- When using `--skip-magic-trailing-comma` or `-C`, trailing commas are stripped from
subscript expressions with more than 1 element (3209)
- Add extra blank lines in stubs in a few cases (3564, 3862)
- Accept raw strings as docstrings (3947)
- Split long lines in case blocks (4024)
- Stop removing spaces from walrus operators within subscripts (3823)
- Fix incorrect formatting of certain async statements (3609)
- Allow combining ` fmt: skip` with other comments (3959)
There are already a few improvements in the `--preview` style, which are slated for the
2025 stable style. Try them out and
[share your feedback](https://github.com/psf/black/issues). In the past, the preview
style has included some features that we were not able to stabilize. This year, we're
adding a separate `--unstable` style for features with known problems. Now, the
`--preview` style only includes features that we actually expect to make it into next
year's stable style.
Stable style
Several bug fixes were made in features that are moved to the stable style in this
release:
- Fix comment handling when parenthesising conditional expressions (4134)
- Fix bug where spaces were not added around parenthesized walruses in subscripts,
unlike other binary operators (4109)
- Remove empty lines before docstrings in async functions (4132)
- Address a missing case in the change to allow empty lines at the beginning of all
blocks, except immediately before a docstring (4130)
- For stubs, fix logic to enforce empty line after nested classes with bodies (4141)
Preview style
- Add `--unstable` style, covering preview features that have known problems that would
block them from going into the stable style. Also add the `--enable-unstable-feature`
flag; for example, use
`--enable-unstable-feature hug_parens_with_braces_and_square_brackets` to apply this
preview feature throughout 2024, even if a later Black release downgrades the feature
to unstable (4096)
- Format module docstrings the same as class and function docstrings (4095)
- Fix crash when using a walrus in a dictionary (4155)
- Fix unnecessary parentheses when wrapping long dicts (4135)
- Stop normalizing spaces before ` fmt: skip` comments (4146)
Configuration
- Print warning when configuration in `pyproject.toml` contains an invalid key (4165)
- Fix symlink handling, properly ignoring symlinks that point outside of root (4161)
- Fix cache mtime logic that resulted in false positive cache hits (4128)
- Remove the long-deprecated `--experimental-string-processing` flag. This feature can
currently be enabled with `--preview --enable-unstable-feature string_processing`.
(4096)
Integrations
- Revert the change to run Black's pre-commit integration only on specific git hooks
(3940) for better compatibility with older versions of pre-commit (4137)
Thank you
Thank you to everyone who provided feedback to help make Black's 2024 style even better. Thank you also to everyone who contributed code to Black.

```
### 23.12.0
```
Highlights
It's almost 2024, which means it's time for a new edition of _Black_'s stable style!
Together with this release, we'll put out an alpha release 24.1a1 showcasing the draft
2024 stable style, which we'll finalize in the January release. Please try it out and
[share your feedback](https://github.com/psf/black/issues/4042).
This release (23.12.0) will still produce the 2023 style. Most but not all of the
changes in `--preview` mode will be in the 2024 stable style.
Stable style
- Fix bug where ` fmt: off` automatically dedents when used with the `--line-ranges`
option, even when it is not within the specified line range. (4084)
- Fix feature detection for parenthesized context managers (4104)
Preview style
- Prefer more equal signs before a break when splitting chained assignments (4010)
- Standalone form feed characters at the module level are no longer removed (4021)
- Additional cases of immediately nested tuples, lists, and dictionaries are now
indented less (4012)
- Allow empty lines at the beginning of all blocks, except immediately before a
docstring (4060)
- Fix crash in preview mode when using a short `--line-length` (4086)
- Keep suites consisting of only an ellipsis on their own lines if they are not
functions or class definitions (4066) (4103)
Configuration
- `--line-ranges` now skips _Black_'s internal stability check in `--safe` mode. This
avoids a crash on rare inputs that have many unformatted same-content lines. (4034)
Packaging
- Upgrade to mypy 1.7.1 (4049) (4069)
- Faster compiled wheels are now available for CPython 3.12 (4070)

- No longer treat leading f-strings as docstrings. This matches Python's behaviour and
fixes a crash (4019)
Preview style
- Multiline dicts and lists that are the sole argument to a function are now
indented less (3964)
- Multiline unpacked dicts and lists as the sole argument to a function are now also
indented less (3992)
- In f-string debug expressions, quote types that are visible in the final string
are now preserved (4005)
- Fix a bug where long `case` blocks were not split into multiple lines. Also enable
general trailing comma rules on `case` blocks (4024)
- Keep requiring two empty lines between module-level docstring and first function or
class definition (4028)
- Add support for single-line format skip with other comments on the same line (3959)

- Fix a bug in the matching of absolute path names in `--include` (3976)
Performance
- Fix mypyc builds on arm64 on macOS (4017)
Integrations

```
### 23.9.1
```
Due to various issues, the previous release (23.9.0) did not include compiled mypyc
wheels, which make Black significantly faster. These issues have now been fixed, and
this release should come with compiled wheels once again.
There will be no wheels for Python 3.12 due to a bug in mypyc. We will provide 3.12
wheels in a future release as soon as the mypyc bug is fixed.
Packaging
- Upgrade to mypy 1.5.1 (3864)
Performance
- Store raw tuples instead of NamedTuples in Black's cache, improving performance and
decreasing the size of the cache (3877)
```
### 23.9.0
```
Preview style
- More concise formatting for dummy implementations (3796)
- In stub files, add a blank line between a statement with a body (e.g an

[official pre-commit mirror](https://github.com/psf/black-pre-commit-mirror). Swapping
`https://github.com/psf/black` to `https://github.com/psf/black-pre-commit-mirror` in
your `.pre-commit-config.yaml` will make Black about 2x faster (3828)
- The `.black.env` folder specified by `ENV_PATH` will now be removed on the completion
of the GitHub Action (3759)

and the `pyproject.toml` found isn't in the current working directory (3719)
- _Black_ will now error if `exclude` and `extend-exclude` have invalid data types in
`pyproject.toml`, instead of silently doing the wrong thing (3764)
Packaging
- Upgrade mypyc from 0.991 to 1.3 (3697)
- Remove patching of Click that mitigated errors on Python 3.6 with `LANG=C` (3768)
Parser

### 23.3.0
```
Highlights
This release fixes a longstanding confusing behavior in Black's GitHub action, where the
version of the action did not determine the version of Black being run (issue 3382). In
addition, there is a small bug fix around imports and a number of improvements to the
preview style.
Please try out the
[preview style](https://black.readthedocs.io/en/stable/the_black_code_style/future_style.html#preview-style)
with `black --preview` and tell us your feedback. All changes in the preview style are
expected to become part of Black's stable style in January 2024.
Stable style
- Import lines with ` fmt: skip` and ` fmt: off` no longer have an extra blank line
added when they are right after another import line (3610)
Preview style
- Add trailing commas to collection literals even if there's a comment after the last
entry (3393)
- `async def`, `async for`, and `async with` statements are now formatted consistently
compared to their non-async version. (3609)

parentheses (3589)
- Let string splitters respect [East Asian Width](https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr11/)
(3445)
- Now long string literals can be split after East Asian commas and periods (`、` U+3001
IDEOGRAPHIC COMMA, `。` U+3002 IDEOGRAPHIC FULL STOP, & `,` U+FF0C FULLWIDTH COMMA)
besides before spaces (3445)
- For stubs, enforce one blank line after a nested class with a body other than just
`...` (3564)
- Improve handling of multiline strings by changing line split behavior (1879)
Parser
- Added support for formatting files with invalid type comments (3594)
Integrations
- Update GitHub Action to use the version of Black equivalent to action's version if
version input is not specified (3543)
- Fix missing Python binary path in autoload script for vim (3508)
Documentation
- Document that only the most recent release is supported for security issues;
vulnerabilities should be reported through Tidelift (3612)
```
### 23.1.0
```
Highlights
This is the first release of 2023, and following our [stability policy](https://black.readthedocs.io/en/stable/the_black_code_style/index.html#stability-policy), it comes with a number of improvements to our stable style, notably improvements to empty line handling and the removal of redundant parentheses in several contexts.
There are also many changes to the preview style; try out `black --preview` and give us feedback to help us set the stable style for next year.
In addition to style changes, Black now automatically infers the supported Python versions from your `pyproject.toml` file, removing the need to set Black's target versions separately.
Stable style
<!-- Changes that affect Black's stable style -->
- Introduce the 2023 stable style, which incorporates most aspects of last year's preview style (3418). Specific changes:
- Enforce empty lines before classes and functions with sticky leading comments (3302) (22.12.0)
- Reformat empty and whitespace-only files as either an empty file (if no newline is present) or as a single newline character (if a newline is present) (3348) (22.12.0)
- Correctly handle trailing commas that are inside a line's leading non-nested parens (3370) (22.12.0)
- `--skip-string-normalization` / `-S` now prevents docstring prefixes from being normalized as expected (3168) (since 22.8.0)
- When using `--skip-magic-trailing-comma` or `-C`, trailing commas are stripped from subscript expressions with more than 1 element (3209) (22.8.0)
- Fix a string merging/split issue when a comment is present in the middle of implicitly concatenated strings on its own line (3227) (22.8.0)
- Docstring quotes are no longer moved if it would violate the line length limit (3044, 3430) (22.6.0)

- Fix a crash when a colon line is marked between ` fmt: off` and ` fmt: on` (3439)
Preview style
<!-- Changes that affect Black's preview style -->
- Format hex codes in unicode escape sequences in string literals (2916)
- Add parentheses around `if`-`else` expressions (2278)
- Improve performance on large expressions that contain many strings (3467)
- Fix a crash in preview style with assert + parenthesized string (3415)

- Fix an issue where extra empty lines are added when a decorator has ` fmt: skip` applied or there is a standalone comment between decorators (3470)
- Do not put the closing quotes in a docstring on a separate line, even if the line is too long (3430)
- Long values in dict literals are now wrapped in parentheses; correspondingly unnecessary parentheses around short values in dict literals are now removed; long string lambda values are now wrapped in parentheses (3440)
- Fix two crashes in preview style involving edge cases with docstrings (3451)
- Exclude string type annotations from improved string processing; fix crash when the return type annotation is stringified and spans across multiple lines (3462)
- Wrap multiple context managers in parentheses when targeting Python 3.9+ (3489)
- Fix several crashes in preview style with walrus operators used in `with` statements or tuples (3473)

Integrations
<!-- For example, Docker, GitHub Actions, pre-commit, editors -->
- Move 3.11 CI to normal flow now that all dependencies support 3.11 (3446)
- Docker: Add new `latest_prerelease` tag automation to follow latest black alpha release on docker images (3465)
Documentation
<!-- Major changes to documentation and policies. Small docs changes
don't need a changelog entry. -->
- Expand `vim-plug` installation instructions to offer more explicit options (3468)
```

- Parsing support has been added for walruses inside generator expression that are
passed as function args (for example,
`any(match := my_re.match(text) for text in texts)`) (3327).
Integrations
<!-- For example, Docker, GitHub Actions, pre-commit, editors -->
- Vim plugin: Optionally allow using the system installation of Black via
`let g:black_use_virtualenv = 0`(3309)
```
### 22.10.0
```
Highlights
- Runtime support for Python 3.6 has been removed. Formatting 3.6 code will still be
supported until further notice.
Stable style
- Fix a crash when ` fmt: on` is used on a different block level than ` fmt: off`
(3281)
Preview style
- Fix a crash when formatting some dicts with parenthesis-wrapped long string keys
(3262)
Configuration
- `.ipynb_checkpoints` directories are now excluded by default (3293)
- Add `--skip-source-first-line` / `-x` option to ignore the first line of source code
while formatting (3299)
Packaging
- Executables made with PyInstaller will no longer crash when formatting several files
at once on macOS. Native x86-64 executables for macOS are available once again.
(3275)
- Hatchling is now used as the build backend. This will not have any effect for users
who install Black with its wheels from PyPI. (3233)
- Faster compiled wheels are now available for CPython 3.11 (3276)
_Blackd_
- Windows style (CRLF) newlines will be preserved (3257).
Integrations
- Vim plugin: add flag (`g:black_preview`) to enable/disable the preview style (3246)
- Update GitHub Action to support formatting of Jupyter Notebook files via a `jupyter`
option (3282)
- Update GitHub Action to support use of version specifiers (e.g. `<23`) for Black
version (3265)
```
### 22.8.0
```
Highlights
- Python 3.11 is now supported, except for _blackd_ as aiohttp does not support 3.11 as of publishing (3234)
- This is the last release that supports running _Black_ on Python 3.6 (formatting 3.6 code will continue to be supported until further notice)
- Reword the stability policy to say that we may, in rare cases, make changes that affect code that was not previously formatted by _Black_ (3155)
Stable style
- Fix an infinite loop when using ` fmt: on/off` in the middle of an expression or code block (3158)
- Fix incorrect handling of ` fmt: skip` on colon (`:`) lines (3148)
- Comments are no longer deleted when a line had spaces removed around power operators (2874)
Preview style
- Single-character closing docstring quotes are no longer moved to their own line as this is invalid. This was a bug introduced in version 22.6.0. (3166)
- `--skip-string-normalization` / `-S` now prevents docstring prefixes from being normalized as expected (3168)
- When using `--skip-magic-trailing-comma` or `-C`, trailing commas are stripped from subscript expressions with more than 1 element (3209)
- Implicitly concatenated strings inside a list, set, or tuple are now wrapped inside parentheses (3162)
- Fix a string merging/split issue when a comment is present in the middle of implicitly concatenated strings on its own line (3227)
_Blackd_
- `blackd` now supports enabling the preview style via the `X-Preview` header (3217)
Configuration
- Black now uses the presence of debug f-strings to detect target version (3215)
- Fix misdetection of project root and verbose logging of sources in cases involving `--stdin-filename` (3216)
- Immediate `.gitignore` files in source directories given on the command line are now also respected, previously only `.gitignore` files in the project root and automatically discovered directories were respected (3237)
Documentation
- Recommend using BlackConnect in IntelliJ IDEs (3150)
Integrations
- Vim plugin: prefix messages with `Black: ` so it's clear they come from Black (3194)
- Docker: changed to a /opt/venv installation + added to PATH to be available to non-root users (3202)
Output
- Change from deprecated `asyncio.get_event_loop()` to create our event loop which removes DeprecationWarning (3164)
- Remove logging from internal `blib2to3` library since it regularly emits error logs about failed caching that can and should be ignored (3193)
Parser
- Type comments are now included in the AST equivalence check consistently so accidental deletion raises an error. Though type comments can't be tracked when running on PyPy 3.7 due to standard library limitations. (2874)
Performance
- Reduce Black's startup time when formatting a single file by 15-30% (3211)

optional trailing commas inserted by `Black` and optional parentheses looking at
pre-existing "magic" trailing commas. This fixes issue 1629 and all of its many many
duplicates. (2126)

Changelog
### 24.2.0 ``` Stable style - Fixed a bug where comments where mistakenly removed along with redundant parentheses (4218) Preview style - Move the `hug_parens_with_braces_and_square_brackets` feature to the unstable style due to an outstanding crash and proposed formatting tweaks (4198) - Fixed a bug where base expressions caused inconsistent formatting of \*\* in tenary expression (4154) - Checking for newline before adding one on docstring that is almost at the line limit (4185) - Remove redundant parentheses in `case` statement `if` guards (4214). Configuration - Fix issue where _Black_ would ignore input files in the presence of symlinks (4222) - _Black_ now ignores `pyproject.toml` that is missing a `tool.black` section when discovering project root and configuration. Since _Black_ continues to use version control as an indicator of project root, this is expected to primarily change behavior for users in a monorepo setup (desirably). If you wish to preserve previous behavior, simply add an empty `[tool.black]` to the previously discovered `pyproject.toml` (4204) Output - Black will swallow any `SyntaxWarning`s or `DeprecationWarning`s produced by the `ast` module when performing equivalence checks (4189) Integrations - Add a JSONSchema and provide a validate-pyproject entry-point (4181) ``` ### 24.1.1 ``` Bugfix release to fix a bug that made Black unusable on certain file systems with strict limits on path length. Preview style - Consistently add trailing comma on typed parameters (4164) Configuration - Shorten the length of the name of the cache file to fix crashes on file systems that do not support long paths (4176) ``` ### 24.1.0 ``` Highlights This release introduces the new 2024 stable style (4106), stabilizing the following changes: - Add parentheses around `if`-`else` expressions (2278) - Dummy class and function implementations consisting only of `...` are formatted more compactly (3796) - If an assignment statement is too long, we now prefer splitting on the right-hand side (3368) - Hex codes in Unicode escape sequences are now standardized to lowercase (2916) - Allow empty first lines at the beginning of most blocks (3967, 4061) - Add parentheses around long type annotations (3899) - Enforce newline after module docstrings (3932, 4028) - Fix incorrect magic trailing comma handling in return types (3916) - Remove blank lines before class docstrings (3692) - Wrap multiple context managers in parentheses if combined in a single `with` statement (3489) - Fix bug in line length calculations for power operations (3942) - Add trailing commas to collection literals even if there's a comment after the last entry (3393) - When using `--skip-magic-trailing-comma` or `-C`, trailing commas are stripped from subscript expressions with more than 1 element (3209) - Add extra blank lines in stubs in a few cases (3564, 3862) - Accept raw strings as docstrings (3947) - Split long lines in case blocks (4024) - Stop removing spaces from walrus operators within subscripts (3823) - Fix incorrect formatting of certain async statements (3609) - Allow combining ` fmt: skip` with other comments (3959) There are already a few improvements in the `--preview` style, which are slated for the 2025 stable style. Try them out and [share your feedback](https://github.com/psf/black/issues). In the past, the preview style has included some features that we were not able to stabilize. This year, we're adding a separate `--unstable` style for features with known problems. Now, the `--preview` style only includes features that we actually expect to make it into next year's stable style. Stable style Several bug fixes were made in features that are moved to the stable style in this release: - Fix comment handling when parenthesising conditional expressions (4134) - Fix bug where spaces were not added around parenthesized walruses in subscripts, unlike other binary operators (4109) - Remove empty lines before docstrings in async functions (4132) - Address a missing case in the change to allow empty lines at the beginning of all blocks, except immediately before a docstring (4130) - For stubs, fix logic to enforce empty line after nested classes with bodies (4141) Preview style - Add `--unstable` style, covering preview features that have known problems that would block them from going into the stable style. Also add the `--enable-unstable-feature` flag; for example, use `--enable-unstable-feature hug_parens_with_braces_and_square_brackets` to apply this preview feature throughout 2024, even if a later Black release downgrades the feature to unstable (4096) - Format module docstrings the same as class and function docstrings (4095) - Fix crash when using a walrus in a dictionary (4155) - Fix unnecessary parentheses when wrapping long dicts (4135) - Stop normalizing spaces before ` fmt: skip` comments (4146) Configuration - Print warning when configuration in `pyproject.toml` contains an invalid key (4165) - Fix symlink handling, properly ignoring symlinks that point outside of root (4161) - Fix cache mtime logic that resulted in false positive cache hits (4128) - Remove the long-deprecated `--experimental-string-processing` flag. This feature can currently be enabled with `--preview --enable-unstable-feature string_processing`. (4096) Integrations - Revert the change to run Black's pre-commit integration only on specific git hooks (3940) for better compatibility with older versions of pre-commit (4137) Thank you Thank you to everyone who provided feedback to help make Black's 2024 style even better. Thank you also to everyone who contributed code to Black. ``` ### 24.1a1 ``` This is a preview of the 2024 stable style, showing the formatting that Black will use in 2024. Please test it out and [share your feedback](https://github.com/psf/black/issues/4042). This applies the following changes: - Multiline strings passed as the sole function arguments are formatted more compactly (1879) - Dummy class and function implementations consisting only of `...` are formatted more compactly (3796) - If an assignment statement is too long, we now prefer splitting on the right-hand side (3368) - Hex codes in Unicode escape sequences are now standardized to lowercase (2916) - Allow empty first lines at the beginning of most blocks (3967, 4061) - Add parentheses around long type annotations (3899) - Standardize on a single newline after module docstrings (3932) - Fix incorrect magic trailing comma handling in return types (3916) - Remove blank lines before class docstrings (3692) - Wrap multiple context managers in parentheses if combined in a single `with` statement (3489) - Fix bug in line length calculations for power operations (3942) - Add trailing commas to collection literals even if there's a comment after the last entry (3393) - When using `--skip-magic-trailing-comma` or `-C`, trailing commas are stripped from subscript expressions with more than 1 element (3209) - Add extra blank lines in stubs in a few cases (3564, 3862) - Accept raw strings as docstrings (3947) - Split long lines in case blocks (4024) - Stop removing spaces from walrus operators within subscripts (3823) - Fix incorrect formatting of certain async statements (3609) - Allow combining ` fmt: skip` with other comments (3959) The following two changes may be included, but have outstanding issues that will need to be resolved: - Long values in dict literals are now wrapped in parentheses; correspondingly unnecessary parentheses around short values in dict literals are now removed; long string lambda values are now wrapped in parentheses (3440) - Add parentheses around `if`-`else` expressions (2278) ``` ### 23.12.1 ``` Fixed a bug that included dependencies from the d extra by default (4108) ``` ### 23.12.0 ``` Highlights It's almost 2024, which means it's time for a new edition of _Black_'s stable style! Together with this release, we'll put out an alpha release 24.1a1 showcasing the draft 2024 stable style, which we'll finalize in the January release. Please try it out and [share your feedback](https://github.com/psf/black/issues/4042). This release (23.12.0) will still produce the 2023 style. Most but not all of the changes in `--preview` mode will be in the 2024 stable style. Stable style - Fix bug where ` fmt: off` automatically dedents when used with the `--line-ranges` option, even when it is not within the specified line range. (4084) - Fix feature detection for parenthesized context managers (4104) Preview style - Prefer more equal signs before a break when splitting chained assignments (4010) - Standalone form feed characters at the module level are no longer removed (4021) - Additional cases of immediately nested tuples, lists, and dictionaries are now indented less (4012) - Allow empty lines at the beginning of all blocks, except immediately before a docstring (4060) - Fix crash in preview mode when using a short `--line-length` (4086) - Keep suites consisting of only an ellipsis on their own lines if they are not functions or class definitions (4066) (4103) Configuration - `--line-ranges` now skips _Black_'s internal stability check in `--safe` mode. This avoids a crash on rare inputs that have many unformatted same-content lines.

These issues have now been fixed, and this release should come with compiled wheels once again. There will be no wheels for Python 3.12 due to a bug in mypyc. We will provide 3.12 wheels in a future release as soon as the mypyc bug is fixed. Packaging - Upgrade to mypy 1.5.1 (3864) Performance - Store raw tuples instead of NamedTuples in Black's cache, improving performance and decreasing the size of the cache (3877) ``` ### 23.9.0 ``` Preview style - More concise formatting for dummy implementations (3796) - In stub files, add a blank line between a statement with a body (e.g an `if sys.version_info > (3, x):`) and a function definition on the same level (3862) - Fix a bug whereby spaces were removed from walrus operators within subscript(3823) Configuration - Black now applies exclusion and ignore logic before resolving symlinks (3846) Performance - Avoid importing `IPython` if notebook cells do not contain magics (3782) - Improve caching by comparing file hashes as fallback for mtime and size (3821) _Blackd_ - Fix an issue in `blackd` with single character input (3558) Integrations - Black now has an [official pre-commit mirror](https://github.com/psf/black-pre-commit-mirror). Swapping `https://github.com/psf/black` to `https://github.com/psf/black-pre-commit-mirror` in your `.pre-commit-config.yaml` will make Black about 2x faster (3828) - The `.black.env` folder specified by `ENV_PATH` will now be removed on the completion of the GitHub Action (3759) ``` ### 23.7.0 ``` Highlights - Runtime support for Python 3.7 has been removed. Formatting 3.7 code will still be supported until further notice (3765) Stable style - Fix a bug where an illegal trailing comma was added to return type annotations using PEP 604 unions (3735) - Fix several bugs and crashes where comments in stub files were removed or mishandled under some circumstances (3745) - Fix a crash with multi-line magic comments like `type: ignore` within parentheses (3740) - Fix error in AST validation when _Black_ removes trailing whitespace in a type comment (3773) Preview style - Implicitly concatenated strings used as function args are no longer wrapped inside parentheses (3640) - Remove blank lines between a class definition and its docstring (3692) Configuration - The `--workers` argument to _Black_ can now be specified via the `BLACK_NUM_WORKERS` environment variable (3743) - `.pytest_cache`, `.ruff_cache` and `.vscode` are now excluded by default (3691) - Fix _Black_ not honouring `pyproject.toml` settings when running `--stdin-filename` and the `pyproject.toml` found isn't in the current working directory (3719) - _Black_ will now error if `exclude` and `extend-exclude` have invalid data types in `pyproject.toml`, instead of silently doing the wrong thing (3764) Packaging - Upgrade mypyc from 0.991 to 1.3 (3697) - Remove patching of Click that mitigated errors on Python 3.6 with `LANG=C` (3768) Parser - Add support for the new PEP 695 syntax in Python 3.12 (3703) Performance - Speed up _Black_ significantly when the cache is full (3751) - Avoid importing `IPython` in a case where we wouldn't need it (3748) Output - Use aware UTC datetimes internally, avoids deprecation warning on Python 3.12 (3728) - Change verbose logging to exactly mirror _Black_'s logic for source discovery (3749) _Blackd_ - The `blackd` argument parser now shows the default values for options in their help text (3712) Integrations - Black is now tested with [`PYTHONWARNDEFAULTENCODING = 1`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/io.html#io-encoding-warning) (3763) - Update GitHub Action to display black output in the job summary (3688) Documentation - Add a CITATION.cff file to the root of the repository, containing metadata on how to cite this software (3723) - Update the _classes_ and _exceptions_ documentation in Developer reference to match the latest code base (3755) ``` ### 23.3.0 ``` Highlights This release fixes a longstanding confusing behavior in Black's GitHub action, where the version of the action did not determine the version of Black being run (issue 3382).

Native x86-64 executables for macOS are available once again. (3275) - Hatchling is now used as the build backend. This will not have any effect for users who install Black with its wheels from PyPI. (3233) - Faster compiled wheels are now available for CPython 3.11 (3276) _Blackd_ - Windows style (CRLF) newlines will be preserved (3257).

This was a bug introduced in version 22.6.0. (3166) - `--skip-string-normalization` / `-S` now prevents docstring prefixes from being normalized as expected (3168) - When using `--skip-magic-trailing-comma` or `-C`, trailing commas are stripped from subscript expressions with more than 1 element (3209) - Implicitly concatenated strings inside a list, set, or tuple are now wrapped inside parentheses (3162) - Fix a string merging/split issue when a comment is present in the middle of implicitly concatenated strings on its own line (3227) _Blackd_ - `blackd` now supports enabling the preview style via the `X-Preview` header (3217) Configuration - Black now uses the presence of debug f-strings to detect target version (3215) - Fix misdetection of project root and verbose logging of sources in cases involving `--stdin-filename` (3216) - Immediate `.gitignore` files in source directories given on the command line are now also respected, previously only `.gitignore` files in the project root and automatically discovered directories were respected (3237) Documentation - Recommend using BlackConnect in IntelliJ IDEs (3150) Integrations - Vim plugin: prefix messages with `Black: ` so it's clear they come from Black (3194) - Docker: changed to a /opt/venv installation + added to PATH to be available to non-root users (3202) Output - Change from deprecated `asyncio.get_event_loop()` to create our event loop which removes DeprecationWarning (3164) - Remove logging from internal `blib2to3` library since it regularly emits error logs about failed caching that can and should be ignored (3193) Parser - Type comments are now included in the AST equivalence check consistently so accidental deletion raises an error. Though type comments can't be tracked when running on PyPy 3.7 due to standard library limitations.
