[issue24617] os.makedirs()'s [mode] not correct

Martin Panter added the comment: I think it would be good to move the sentence about FileExistsError away from your new paragraph about *mode*. Also, I would try to make the hyperlink a bit more explicit and descriptive, maybe The *mode* parameter is passed to :func:`mkdir`; see :ref:`the mkdi

eryksun added the comment: This is not a bug, but perhaps the documentation could further clarify that the set of valid values for the mode parameter is platform dependent. The [POSIX specification][1] for mkdir() states that "[w]hen bits in mode other than the file permission bits are set, th

[issue24617] os.makedirs()'s [mode] not correct

New submission from John Jones: os.makedirs() gives the optional variable mode to set the permissions on the directories it creates. While it seems to work for all triplet octal values (777,755,etc) it doesn't seem to work on values with the sticky bit (1777,1755,etc) I know that to set the v
