Description
@lieryan I want to reassure you that I am happy investigating Rope's code. An effective workflow is in place, and many mysteries have disappeared.
If you agree, #666 (designing our conversation) will help me keep you better informed.
Please don't worry about recent PRs—I like to understand code by changing it and seeing what happens :-) The investigations have uncovered code that the Theory of Operation will discuss.
My biggest frustration is that the wildcard import in rope.base.ast prevents mypy from doing thorough checks. The result is a proliferation of PRs. Some PRs use wildcard imports; a parallel set does not.
