Note that 'a/b/c/..' is not the same as 'a/b' if 'c' is a link. And since "p / ..." looks very similar to "p / '..'", it will cause mistakes. "p.parent" is more explicit. AFAIK in cmd.exe on Windows 'a/b/c/...' means 'a/b/c/../..'. This is yet one source of confusion. ---------- nosy: +serhiy.storchaka _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33739> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
