Description

Code in the branches of an if condition must be unique. If you have duplicated branches, merge the conditions.

Non-Compliant Code Examples

if foo:
  printf("bar")
elif baz:
  printf("bar2")
elif bap:
  # same code than the if condition
  printf("bar")
else:
  # same code than the if condition
  printf("bar")

Compliant Code Examples

if foo:
  printf("bar")
elif baz:
  printf("bar2")
elif bap:
  printf("bar3")
else:
  printf("bar4")
