In pants v2.0.0rc1, I got the warning message:

You can make that switch now (and silence this warning) by setting `pants_distdir_legacy_paths = false` in the [GLOBAL] section of pants.toml.

Alternatively, you can set the field `output_path` on the target skelpants/src/python/skelpants to a hardcoded value.

I can't find mention of this in slack or pantsbuild.org, so starting a thread. 🙂

this is a global pants option defined in

global_options.py

with a help string

And the reference part of the docs, which is generated

a search didn't turn it up

Hm, it’s on https://www.pantsbuild.org/docs/reference-global if you look for legacy_paths. Idk why it didn’t work in readme’s search

weird
