Are you noting the inefficiency of doing two stat calls instead of one, or saying that it should make none at all in dry-run mode? My opinion is that a dry-run mode should not create any file nor make any changes, but reading files and calling processes that give info is fair game. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1109658> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
