This patch adds the following new feature to sphinx:
inheritance-diagram
gains a new option:include-subclasses:
.When this option is given, not only the classes listed as arguments to
inheritance-diagram
are included in the diagram, but all sub classes (and their sub classes etc.) as well.This makes it possible to generate a complete inheritance tree by just listing the base class and adding
:include-subclasses:
.This is different from specifying the module that contains this base class, as this module might include other classes that should not be part of the diagram.
Closes #8191
