Steve Fox <stevenm...@gmx.com> added the comment:
Fundamentally the use of allow_abbrev=False is now broken (it is allowing abbreviations when already explicitly told not to) The use of a single - for all options is much older than -- and exists in my unix utilities and many programs have been written to follow this convention, these are now broken in 3.8+ "Changed in version 3.8: In previous versions, allow_abbrev also disabled grouping of short flags such as -vv to mean -v -v" Does not accurately describe the behavior change, it is more broadly injecting abbreviations when already told not to. ---------- nosy: +Fox214 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue41534> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
