Tox: Editorial: consider offering alternative to whitelist_externals

Created on 3 Jan 2020  路  6Comments  路  Source: tox-dev/tox

Using whitelist (and its counterpart) isn't exactly welcoming. While migrating away from it entirely might be hard due to compatibility considerations, it'd be nice if configuration files from projects that build on this technology could avoid it.

See https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-knodel-terminology for additional context.

We cannot do this without breaking backwards compatibility. We might be able to add other aliases for this setting as part of #1394, ETA at least September.

Can an alias be provided in the meantime?
