I'd like to switch the default for the shell backend's
outputs_match_mode
field from
all_warn
to
all
which would make it an error to have unmatched globs in
output_files
/
output_directories
fields. Can I just document the switch for 2.26.x (and how users can migrate) or should there by a deprecation warning in 2.25.x first/
b
Suggest: deprecation for a release or two, so that users can upgrade and not immediately have to solve the problem (eg makes it easier to test pre-releases)

Are there examples of how to deprecate the default when the user does not set the field?
In changing the default, the user can always just set
outputs_match_mode="all_warn"
to keep the existing behavior.
