django-simple-hisory is a fairly popular [1] package for keeping track of changes in django objects. Setting the
_change_reason
property of an object is the officially documented way to provide a value for thehistory_change_reason
field of historical objects [2].When django-simple-hisory is installed, protected-access warnings for setting
_change_reason
is most likely a false positive, and should be supressed.Because of inherent limitations of pylint, this may lead to some false negatives if
_change_reason
is used elsewhere.[1] https://pypistats.org/packages/django-simple-history
