[issue42091] strftime returns empty string for -d, -I 3.8.3

Can you tell us what the expected behavior is?

>From the strftime docs: "The full set of format codes supported varies across

You're probably just seeing platform-specific behavior.

On cygwin, I get an empty string.

[issue42091] strftime returns empty string for -d, -I 3.8.3

[Pridhvi Myneni]

New submission from Pridhvi Myneni :

My system has python from MSYS2 integrated with my windows environment, so I 
can't test if Windows exhibits the same issue; however, this works perfectly in 
Ubuntu. The issue is %-d, %-I don't work as expected and instead cause the 
function call to return an empty string. 

Steps to reproduce:
import datetime
now = datetime.datetime.now()
now.strftime("%-I")
...
