Empty sequences in Python are falsy, so
if len(config_file) != 0:
can be simplified to
if config_file:
pylint warning:
C1801: Do not use `len(SEQUENCE)` to determine if a sequence is
empty (len-as-condition)
Simplify the code a bit with os.path.join(), which indirectly gets rid
of the warning. os.path.join('', 'foo') returns 'foo', so things work
out when os.path.basename() returns '' (no directory) as well.
I'm getting rid of pylint warnings for a CI check.
Also replace a '== None' with 'is None', which is more common.
