+no-redeclare-with-import-autofix
+================================
+
+This is the
+`builtin eslint rule no-redeclare <https://eslint.org/docs/latest/rules/no-redeclare>`_,
+but with an additional fixer that can automatically remove superfluous
+(duplicate) imports.
+
+For redeclarations that are not imports, there is no automatic fix, as
+the author will likely have to rename variables so that they do not
+redeclare existing variables or conflict with the name of a builtin
+property or global variable.
+
+Typical duplicate imports happen when a `head.js` file, imports
+a module and a test then subsequently also attempts to import the same
+module.
+
+In browser mochitests, an additional typical scenario is importing
+modules that are already imported in the main browser window. Because
+these tests run in a scope that inherits from the main browser window
+one, there is no need to re-import such modules.
