.. class:: InitVar
``InitVar[T]`` type annotations describe variables that are :ref:`init-only
<dataclasses-init-only-variables>`. Fields annotated with :class:`!InitVar`
are considered pseudo-fields, and thus are neither returned by the
:func:`fields` function nor used in any way except adding them as
parameters to :meth:`~object.__init__` and an optional
:meth:`__post_init__`.

Another place where :func:`@dataclass <dataclass>` inspects a type annotation is to
determine if a field is an init-only variable. It does this by seeing
if the type of a field is of type ``dataclasses.InitVar``. If a field
is an ``InitVar``, it is considered a pseudo-field called an init-only
if the type of a field is of type :class:`InitVar`. If a field
is an :class:`InitVar`, it is considered a pseudo-field called an init-only
field. As it is not a true field, it is not returned by the
module-level :func:`fields` function. Init-only fields are added as
parameters to the generated :meth:`~object.__init__` method, and are passed to
