Remove providing_args from all Signal instances.
Review Request #11623 — Created May 26, 2021 and submitted — Latest diff uploaded
Signal
has historically contained aproviding_args=
argument, which
listed the names of the arguments expected to be sent to the signal.
This was optional and never used for anything beyond the ability to
introspect a signal (which probably nobody does), and isn't supported on
modern versions of Django.This change removes
providing_args=
from all signals.
Unit tests pass on Django 1.11 and on 3.2 (with other in-progress changes).
