Thomas Kluyver added the comment:
zipinfo-from-file.patch has an orthogonal but related change: the code in
ZipFile.write() to construct a ZipInfo object from a filesystem file is pulled
out to a classmethod ZipInfo.from_file().
Together, these changes make it much easier to control how a file is written to
a zip file, like this:
zi = ZipInfo.from_file(blah)
# ... manipulate zi...
with open(blah, 'rb') as src, zf.open(zi, 'w') as dest:
# copy of the read/write loop - maybe this should be
# pulled out separately as well?
If these changes make it in, I might put a backported copy of the module on
PyPI so I can start using it without waiting for Python 3.6.
