How to specify pylintrc config values, one on each line?

I am using a .pylintrc in my project root directory to control the PyLint messages I get when I run it on my project.

There are many options in pylintrc that take a comma separated list of values. For example:

[MASTER]

disable=relative-import,invalid-name,missing-docstring

In my actual pylintrc, this list of values can be quite long. Is there a way to specify such values, one on each line?

disable=relative-import,\
invalid-name,\
missing-docstring

This did not work either:

disable=relative-import
disable+=invalid-name
disable+=missing-docstring

    missing-docstring
