Subject: python: Add method to clear the default slice/scope
X-Git-Tag: v3.1.0~35
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8134c2ecd3351cfa035b9196c338a1832aceeef7;p=thirdparty%2Flibcgroup.git

python: Add method to clear the default slice/scope

Add a convenience method to clear the default slice/scope.  This may be
useful in cases where the user is done with the slice/scope and wants to
resume operating at the root cgroup level.
