I've had a report for deprecation warnings in git-repo when using gitlab. I then looked at the release notes, and found out that a bunch of the Gitlab object's API is getting deprecated.

Though, I actually need those in git-repo where I initialise objects in two steps, first I initialise the instances (and importantly request's session) then I load the configuration, and finally the connect method configures the gitlab object.

So either having a method to configure the object after it has been instanciated (with an API similar to the constructor), or keeping the setters really matter to me! Or I'll end up forced to monkey patched internals of python-gitlab and that can end up ugly 😖
