branch proposals - python2 support and pytest 4.0 preps
hi everyone, in face of the pending larger changes for a pytest 4.0 removing various things and for the support branching of python2 id like to propose 2 extra branches a) maintenance-python2 : this will be the branch where bugfixes for the last python2 suporting versions will happen i intend to create it in line with the yet to be shaped plans for the python2 support/maintenance branches once the poll results are reviwerd and we have decided on a timeline to put into action b) removals or breakage : this will be the branch where we merge breaking changes in preparation of major releases i'd like to get this one started soon and create according automation to ensure we merge/move patches across bugfixes, features and the removal/breakage branches in a timely manner -- Ronny

Sounds good.
b) removals or breakage : this will be the branch where we merge breaking changes in preparation of major releases
Do we need this? I was thinking we would just remove the breaking changes in the "features" branch after 4.0 is released (for 4.0 we will turn the warnings into errors, removal will happen in 4.1). Cheers, Bruno

True, in that order its actually fine to sort out that way, my brain is a bit hardwired to too strict semver

Background question: Will PyTest 4.0 be removing support for Python 2? Or am I misunderstanding this? Thanks, Nick On Mon, Sep 24, 2018 at 9:27 AM, Ronny Pfannschmidt <rpfannsc@redhat.com> wrote:

No, Ronny's email address two topics: removal of currently deprecated features (4.0 and 4.1) and dropping Python 2 support (no version defined yet, but not 4.0, likely 5.0 or 6.0). Cheers, Bruno.
Gotcha. Thanks for clearing that up for me (and anyone else also confused)! Nick On Mon, Sep 24, 2018 at 10:15 AM, Bruno Oliveira <nicoddemus@gmail.com> wrote:
