+"""
+Flag for whether to generate stricter non-null fields for many-relationships.
+
+For many-relationships, both the list element and the list field itself will be
+non-null by default. This better matches ORM semantics, where there is always a
+list for a many relationship (even if it is empty), and it never contains None.
+
+This option can be set to False to revert to pre-3.0 behavior.
+
+For example, given a User model with many Comments:
+
+    class User(Base):
+        comments = relationship("Comment")
+
+The Schema will be:
+
+    type User {
+        comments: [Comment!]!
+    }
+
+When set to False, the pre-3.0 behavior gives:
+
+    type User {
+        comments: [Comment]
+    }
