Description:
configparser 7.1.0
This package is a backport of the refreshed and enhanced ConfigParser from
later Python versions. To use the backport instead of the built-in version,
simply import it explicitly as a backport:
from backports import configparser
For detailed documentation consult the vanilla version at
http://docs.python.org/3/library/configparser.html.
Versioning
This project uses semver to
communicate the impact of various releases while periodically syncing
with the upstream implementation in CPython.
The history
serves as a reference indicating which versions incorporate
which upstream functionality.
Prior to the 4.0.0 release, another scheme
was used to associate the CPython and backports releases.
Maintenance
This backport was originally authored by Łukasz Langa, the current vanilla
configparser maintainer for CPython and is currently maintained by
Jason R. Coombs:

Conversion Process
This section is technical and should bother you only if you are wondering how
this backport is produced. If the implementation details of this backport are
not important for you, feel free to ignore the following content.
The project takes the following branching approach:
The cpython branch holds unchanged files synchronized from the upstream
CPython repository. The synchronization is currently done by manually copying
the required files and stating from which CPython changeset they come.
The main branch holds a version of the cpython code with some tweaks
that make it compatible with older Pythons. Code on this branch must work
on all supported Python versions. Test with tox or in CI.
The process works like this:
In the cpython branch, run ./sync-upstream, which
downloads the latest stable release of Python and copies the relevant
files from there into their new locations and then commits those
changes with a nice reference to the relevant upstream commit hash.
Merge the new commit to main.
Check for new names in __all__ and update imports in
configparser/__init__.py accordingly. Run tests. Commit.
Make any compatibility changes on main. Run tests. Commit.
Update the docs and release the new version.
