New submission from wenjun.o <wouy...@outlook.com>:
The statement "os.path.realpath('C:\\Users\\')" returns different results
between 3.6.6 and 3.6.7 (and between 3.7.0 and 3.7.1) on Windows.
With python 3.6.6 and 3.7.0 I got 'C:\\Users'.
With python 3.6.7 and 3.7.1 I got 'C:\\Users\\'.
Note the extra trailing backslash with python 3.6.7 and 3.7.1.
On Linux the behavior is consistent where the trailing slash in the input will
be remove from the output: os.path.realpath('/home/') --> '/home'.
I think we should keep the behavior of removing trailing backslash on Windows.
Thanks.
