New submission from Alex Gaynor: Currently shutil.make_archive uses os.chdir, however there's no need for that. Everything that's done could be equally accomplished with path manipulation:
https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Lib/shutil.py#L773-L779 We should switch to using path manipulation in order to make shutil.make_archive thread safe. (Flag: This is probably a good bug for someone with Python skills interested in contributing to CPython!) ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 294756 nosy: Alex Gaynor, tarek priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: shutil.make_archive should not need to chdir (alternatively: make shutil.make_archive thread-safe) versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue30511> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
