Fair enough! I mean that the first of those two is good, the second is
discouraged.Although the first should just be:

something_long(
    like, this, for, example)

rather than wrapping each arg on a newline, IMO. Having a new line for
each arg makes sense sometimes... but isn't really here nor there for
PEP8 purposes.

Oh sorry if I wasn't clear. I would suggest *not* trying to PEP8
filediff or dirdiff. I think fixes to those are likely to be too
disruptive in terms of git annotate, etc. for me to be happy applying.

You're welcome to either file a bug for this yourself, or attach
patches on the list. Either way works for me.

cheers,
