Nick Coghlan added the comment: The main benefit I'd see to the last option is that it would also cover passing a "filter" option for tarfile.TarFile.add(). Dropping down to the lower level API for that isn't *hard*, it's just a bit fiddly (note: currently untested example code):
sdist = tarfile.open(sdist_path, "w:gz", format=tarfile.PAX_FORMAT) sdist.add(os.getcwd(), arcname=sdist_subdir, filter=_exclude_hidden_and_special_files) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue30661> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
