Ezio Melotti added the comment: With rst is possible to define replacements once like: .. |current_branch| replace:: 3.6 .. |prev_branch| replace:: 3.5 and use them across the devguide, however I'm afraid this won't work with code blocks. Perhaps a new entry about updating the devguide

Ezio Melotti added the comment: See msg146972 -- AFAIU the padding of %Y is inconsistent for years <1000 (e.g. 0042 vs 42), and this is not documented in the note (2) of https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#strftime-and-strptime-behavior Also, using %4Y seems to consistently produce

[issue25864] collections.abc.Mapping should include a __reversed__ that raises TypeError

Martin Panter added the comment: If this patch goes ahead, I think the ABC documentation should clarify which methods are checked for None and which aren’t. The datamodel.rst file will suggest None for any method, but ABC will only support it for Iterable and Hashable (I think). Also, what

Ezio Melotti added the comment: I'm going to close this since the reported issue has been fixed. In the test sys.stderr was mocked, and Mock.method_calls simply records the calls done to the mock. Therefore the fact that 'NameError' and ':' were written on sys.stderr on two separate calls to

[issue25958] Implicit ABCs have no means of "anti-registration"

Martin Panter added the comment: I don’t think you need to define __len__() to get an iterable, only __getitem__(). Also, if I understand your problem, Container would also be susceptible in theory, because membership testing via “in” and “not in” falls back to iteration. If you only define
