Oh, INADA-san found an issue of this function: Mercurial. I close this issue and I closed my PR. We can reconsider to deprecate the function once Mercurial will stop to use it. Copy of INADA-san message: """ I think we should keep this several years. Currently, mercurial depends on it. https://www.mercurial-scm.org/repo/hg/file/tip/mercurial/pycompat.py#l103 There is a plan for moving to UTF-8 path, and legacyfsencoding is not needed if this plan is implemented. But I don't know about current progress of this plan. https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/WindowsUTF8Plan """ https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/18396#issuecomment-583284632 ---------- resolution: -> rejected stage: patch review -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37413> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
