R. David Murray added the comment: I'm not sure that a trailing '/' is a "path characteristic" in the same sense that a symlink is. Whether the path has a trailing slash or not has meaning both to the user and to the OS. pathlib isn't just modeling actual path objects on the file system, but the abstract concept of a path, and in the abstract context the presence or absence of a trailing '/' as meaning.
But that's a wider discussion than this issue :) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22276> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
