R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment: I'm good with None/True, but that would imply that for posix rename we'll need to implement the overwrite=False option...which would be a nice thing (the shell mv command has -i for that).
I think a warning would be good, because a unix programmer will assume rename will work the same on windows as it does on posix, and vice versa for a windows programmer. I suppose the fact that we haven't gotten many (any?) complaints about it means it isn't that common a problem, though, so I don't feel strongly about it. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8828> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
