any gotchas around pants supporting higher versions of mypy than it’s default? https://www.pantsbuild.org/docs/reference-mypy#version

So I tried inside our private repo by just updating the version inside pants.toml and everything went fine. That’s one data point. Also I have already been using 0.991 (not pants default)

I got caught out by the syntax on version being the same as requirements, rather than just

"1.0.0"

and had to create a mypy lockfile, but:

version = "mypy==1.0.0"
lockfile = "3rdparty/mypy.lock"

and

./pants generate-lockfiles --resolve=mypy

got me there 🙂
