Rules

I200: Unnecessary import alias

Complains about unnecessary import aliasing of three forms:

• import foo as foo -> import foo

• import foo.bar as bar -> from foo import bar

• from foo import bar as bar -> from foo import bar

The message includes the suggested rewrite (which may not be correct at current), for example:

$ flake8 file.py
file.py:1:1: I200 Unnecessary import alias - rewrite as 'from foo import bar'.
