Subject: copy_absolute() keeps the relative path on _Py_wgetcwd() failure
X-Git-Tag: v3.2a3~23
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4f3abb0f091b14e09d257ee4eb40632471177d6d;p=thirdparty%2FPython%2Fcpython.git

copy_absolute() keeps the relative path on _Py_wgetcwd() failure

.. instead of raising a fatal error. Even if the current directory was deleted,
use relative paths may still work (eg. run Python with "../python").
