New submission from Jason R. Coombs <jar...@jaraco.com>:
On Python 3.8, there's a difference between how datetime.datetime.strftime
renders %Y for years < 1000 between Linux and other platforms.
# Linux
$ docker run -it python python -c 'import datetime;
print(datetime.date(900,1,1).strftime("%Y"))'
900
# macOS
$ python -c 'import datetime; print(datetime.date(900,1,1).strftime("%Y"))'
0900
According to the docs
(https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#strftime-strptime-behavior),
one should expect `'0000'` for year zero and so I'd expect `'0900'` for the
year 900, so the macOS behavior looks correct to me.
