Coveragepy: Allow overriding skip_covered under the html section

[gaborbernat]

For a terminal report to not show fully covered lines, one can set skip_covered to True. For HTML reports though you do want to report on all files, so you can see what covers what. Would be good to be able to specify this configuration scenario via the config only, perhaps by allowing to override coverage:report skip_covered under coverage:html. Currently, you can only override via the CLI, but for example in pytest-cov these flags are not exposed to alter.

PS. pytest-cov ticket solution for this https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/issues/449

I'd like to be able to write this in pyproject.toml.

[tool.coverage.html]
skip_covered = true

Thank you! 🙏

This is implemented in https://github.com/nedbat/coveragepy/pull/1099. Does it do what you need?

[ryboe]

Yes it does! Thank you! That was so fast! 🙏

This is now released as part of coverage 5.4.
