Another solution would be to base it on `strict` parameter: - strict=True, subpath exists => resolve `..` - strict=True, subpath doesn't exist => throw OSError - strict=False => never resolve `..` This would avoid extra `lstat()` calls but would be a much bigger change in terms of behavior. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue42464> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
