kwarg-superseded-by-positional-arg / W1117

Message emitted:

%r will be included in %r since a positional-only parameter with this name already exists

Description:

Emitted when a function is called with a keyword argument that has the same name as a positional-only parameter and the function contains a keyword variadic parameter dict.

Problematic code:

def print_name(name="Sarah", /, **kwds):
    print(name)


print_name(name="Jacob")  # [kwarg-superseded-by-positional-arg]
# Will print "Sarah"

Correct code:

def print_name(name="Sarah", /, **kwds):
    print(name)


print_name("Jacob")
# Will print "Jacob"
