Preserving static type checking while adding attribute access deprecation warnings to GitPython
This is for testing how static type checking works in code that uses
GitPython but is not part
of GitPython and does not use its specific mypy configuration. Its purpose is
to check that static type checking still works, and is able to find all the
same kinds of errors it was able to find before, even across a specific
proposed change to
GitPython that
adds some new dynamic behavior to warn on access to some deprecated module
attributes and a deprecated class attribute.
Because static analysis of code that uses a library does not always behave quite the same inside a project as outside, I developed these tests here while experimenting with changes to GitPython. These tests do not contain any code copied or derived from GitPython, though they are themselves (with small modifications) included in the change I am proposing to GitPython. For that reason, and also to catch even static type errors from code not written specifically to check for them, the tests developed here are not limited to those of static behavior, but also test the relevant dynamic behavior.
This is not related to the dynamic attributes of Git instances, which is a
long-standing fundamental part of GitPython that is intended to remain
effectively unchanged both in its runtime behavior and in its treatment by
static type checkers.
