In Python, if module A defines a name `name`, and module B does `import name from A`, then another module C can `import name from B`. Sometimes it is intentional -- module B is meant to "reexport" `name`. But sometimes it is just confusion/inconsistency on where `name` should be imported from. mypy has a flag `--no-implicit-reexport` which puts some order into this. A name can only be imported from a module if 1. The module defines the name 2. The module's `__all__` includes the name 3. The module imports the name as `from ... import .. as name`. This flag is included in mypy's `--strict` flag. I like this flag, but I realize it is a bit controversial, and in particular item 3 above is a bit unfriendly to contributors who don't know about it. So I didn't intend to add it to pytest. But while investigating issue 7589 I came upon mypy issue 8754 which causes `--no-implicit-reexport` to leak into installed libraries and causes some unexpected typing differences *in pytest* if the user uses this flag. Since the diff mostly makes sense, let's just conform to it. |
