What changes are proposed in this pull request?
This PR switches the code formatter from
yapf
toblack
.The rationale is that we want a code formatter that (i) leaves as little space as possible for discussions around formatting personal preferences, and (ii) increases the likelihood of producing code that is consistently formatted across the python open-source ecosystem.
At this point in time, we believe that
black
does a better job thanyapf
and other alternatives to address these two problems.How is this tested?
No additional tests.
