| 2025-08-25 | Fixed #36485 -- Added lint-docs check in Tox and GitHub Actions. | David Smith | |
| The `check` docs target now runs spelling, black, and lint, so all current documentation quality checks can be run with a single command. Also documented the lint-docs check's availability and usage. | |||
| 2025-08-25 | Refs #36485 -- Rewrapped docs to 79 columns line length. | David Smith | |

| 2025-07-28 | Moved manual testing instructions from intro to submitting patches docs. | Jordan Bae | |

| 2025-07-23 | Fixed #36500 -- Set flake8 max-doc-length config to 79 columns. | Mike Edmunds | |
| Set flake8 max-doc-length to 79 to enforce smaller line length limit on docstrings and comments (per coding-style docs). Updated docs to clarify both requirements are enforced by flake8 and to remove some leftover language from the pre-black era. | |||

| 2024-06-24 | Migrated setuptools configuration to pyproject.toml. | Claude Paroz | |
| This branch migrates setuptools configuration from setup.py/setup.cfg to pyproject.toml. In order to ensure that the generated binary files have consistent casing (both the tarball and the wheel), setuptools version is limited to ">=61.0.0,<69.3.0". Configuration for flake8 was moved to a dedicated .flake8 file since it cannot be configured via pyproject.toml. Also, __pycache__ exclusion was removed from MANIFEST and the extras/Makefile was replaced with a simpler build command. Co-authored-by: Nick Pope <nick@nickpope.me.uk> | |||
