The correct type is inferred, and no other __slots__ variable inthe codebase has an annotation.
A few docstrings had parts that were meant to be indented theusual four spaces beyond the surrounding indentation, but wereindented only three spaces beyond it instead.
Although sometimes found unintuitive, the reutrn type of a class's__init__ method is best annotated as None, as in other functionsthat return implicitly or by operand-less return statements.Note that this is only a minor improvement, effectively just astyle fix, because mypy treats __init__ specially and, *when atleast one parameter is annotated*, its return type is implicitlyNone rather than implicitly Any like other functions. All the__init__ methods modified here did already have one or moreannotated parameters.However, having __init__ methods without the return type makes iteasier to introduce a bug where an __init__ method with noparameters besides self -- which itself should almost always beunannotated and is properly inferred -- is written and the returnannotation needed to get mypy to regard it as statically typed,so it checks it at all, is omitted. (It is also inelegant whenone considers the meaning of __init__ and the distinction betweenit and __new__.)This commit does not add any return type annotations to functionsin the test suite, since the test suite doesn't currently usestatic typing.Further reading:-https://peps.python.org/pep-0484/#the-meaning-of-annotations-python/mypy#604-gitpython-developers#1755 (comment)

Thanks a lot!
I really am impressed by the diligence needed to come up with all of these fixes (particularly in a codebase which might not be the most pleasant to read given its age and moved history).

This pull request is mostly a small revision to type hints to improve a couple things I had noticed when working on#1850 but omitted from there to avoid bloating its scope:
__slots__
is typically unannotated, but in once place it had an unnecessary annotation.mypy
treats it the same when there are parameter annotations,__init__
is best annotated with an explicit return type ofNone
, per PEP 484.In addition, I noticed some slight under-indentation in a few docstrings I had worked on#1850, and fixed that here ine984bfe. (The type annotation tweaks are sufficiently minor that there is an argument to be made that this is really the most significant individual change in this pull request.)
There is some more information in the commit messages.
