-------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
When a parent block is overridden in an if condition, the overridden
content is output regardless of the truthiness of the condition. For
example:
{{{
{% if False %}
{% block parent %}Foo{% endblock parent %}
{% endif %}
}}}
Foo gets output, which feels wrong. But according to Mariusz Felisiak's
response at https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/33311, this is by
design.
It would be great if this could be added to the documentation on
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.0/ref/templates/language/#template-
inheritance Template Inheritance].
