configure magic conversion is seamless

%%configure magic code conversion is not seamless, for example:

%%configure -f
{"executorMemory": "3072M", "executorCores": 4, "numExecutors":10}

gets transformed to python code & r code

# %%configure -f
{"executorMemory": "3072M", "executorCores": 4, "numExecutors":10}

and gets transformed to scala code

// %%configure -f
{"executorMemory": "3072M", "executorCores": 4, "numExecutors":10}.

I think the conversion should be completely commented similar to SQL magic %%sql.

Hi @malayhm , the next release (version 1.6.0) will have a new configuration option custom_cell_magics.

For instance, if you add

custom_cell_magics = "configure,local"

to your jupytext.toml file, then all the notebook in that folder and subfolders will recognize configure and local as cell magics, and hence the whole cell will be commented out.

Thanks for the update @mwouts.
