Conversation
The python.org/dev/peps/ URLs are legacy and redirect to peps.python.org. Use the canonical URLs to match the convention already used elsewhere in the codebase (e.g. CHANGES.md, src/black/files.py, src/black/linegen.py).

What
Replaces 7 occurrences of the legacy
https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-XXXX/URLs in the documentation with the canonicalhttps://peps.python.org/pep-XXXX/form. Touchesdocs/the_black_code_style/current_style.md,docs/usage_and_configuration/the_basics.md, anddocs/guides/using_black_with_other_tools.md.Why
The
python.org/dev/peps/URLs are legacy and redirect topeps.python.org, which the PSF launched as the official PEP host. The repo already uses the canonical form in source comments (src/black/files.py,src/black/linegen.py) and inCHANGES.md, so this aligns the docs with existing convention, removes an unnecessary HTTP redirect for readers, and matches the form linked from the official Python documentation.A single occurrence in
src/black/strings.py:67was intentionally left untouched to keep this PR docs-only and below the 3-file scope.Testing
Pure URL substitution inside Markdown link targets — no code, build, or rendering changes.
git diff --statconfirms 3 files, +7/-7 with no other content modified. Each replaced URL is reachable at the canonicalpeps.python.orghost.Risk
Low — docs-only string substitution; the old URLs still redirect, so there is no broken-link risk for cached references.
