Abstract
========Running a build results in: While this behaviour is mentioned in the commit message, I figured it'd be useful to have this error message mentioned here to provide additional context. This is a good place to also mention a caveat(?) with this approach: If there's an additional space (i.e. indentation of |
When a reST directive has `has_content` set to `True`, optional
arguments and `final_argument_whitespace` set to True, the presence of a
newline at the start of the directive is significant in communicating
whether specific markup is treated as the argument or content.
.. banner-1:: This is an argument
This is still the argument.
This is content.
.. banner-2::
This is still the argument.
This is content.
.. banner-3::
This is content.
This is more content.
In the above example, `banner-2` and `banner-3` are very similar and
only different in the presence of a newline. This is a subtle failure
mode where written content can end up being silently ignored by the reST
directive due to how arguments vs contents are parsed.
Instead of accommodating for this behaviour by adding additional
complexity to the directive being used, this change stops trying to mix
multiline arguments and content in a single directive by using explicit
options instead. This requires more verbosity but also eliminates this
failure mode entirely.
.. banner-1::
:option: This is the option.
This is still the option.
.. banner-2::
This is content.
This is still content.
.. banner-3::
This is content.
This is still content.
With this change, presence of a newline at the start of the directive is
not determining if specific markup is treated as the argument or
content. This is instead communicated by the presence of the option
syntax which is more explicit and presents proper errors when the syntax
is incorrect.

This is an "infra" change, tweaking the specific reST syntax structures being used in the directives used to provide document-wide deprecations or other links. See also #2719, which tracks the wider effort around this.
For the problem that motivated this change, see #3682 and #3756. See the commit message for the details of what the problem's cause was and how this change deals with that.
