BreakingUpgrade verdict

6 breaking changes.

In plain terms
  • If you don't tell Ruff which Python version you use, it now assumes Python 3.9 rather than 3.8.
  • Warnings about docstrings now point at the start of the docstring, so any inline suppression comments may need to move.
  • If you install Ruff with the shell or PowerShell script, it now goes into ~/.local/bin (or another XDG location) instead of ~/.cargo/bin.
  • Lines containing certain Unicode characters may now be measured differently, so some may be reformatted or flagged as too long.
