v1.1.3rc0

This is a Release Candidate for v1.1.3 - which will be released on Monday, 2023-10-23

[1.1.3] - 2023-10-23

This is the first release after maintenance was assumed by https://github.com/stdedos.

The focus of this release was to improve automation:

• Fix the continuous integration,
• Run tests as part of branches and PRs,
• Use .pre-commit-config.yaml file to upkeep the code quality, and
• Automate the release process

There should be no functional changes in this release, although there are changes in the source code.

A heartfelt thank you to https://github.com/Pierre-Sassoulas for his invaluable contributions to the continued maintenance of this project!

Fixed

• The continuous integration was fixed, as a new maintenance team was assembled.

Added

Changed

• Redirected all repository URLs to the https://github.com/pylint-dev/pylint-pytest.
