[dev] Mass patch filing for skipdist->skipsdist in tox.ini
I just pushed changes for the master branches of 26 projects under topic:tox-skipsdist to correct a frequent typographical error found in many projects' tox.ini files, which seems to get copied around a lot. I'm hoping by getting rid of the mistake everywhere we can stamp out future cargo-cult copies. The skipsdist option is set by many projects to avoid unilaterally building an sdist of the local tree every time tox is invoked, which can sometimes be quite time-consuming. Unfortunately it's all too easy to miss that 's' in the middle of the option name, and since tox ignores options it doesn't recognize, this ends up not having the intended effect. If you would rather keep the current behavior in your project, feel free to amend the change to one which removes the invalid "skipdist" line from your tox.ini instead. If you want to backport this to your stable branches, you can do that as well (it may even save some seconds on average tox-based job runtime); my main concern was more for people copying the mistake around, and it's far more likely they'll be copying from master branches so I didn't bother proposing any backports. -- Jeremy Stanley
