Unlikely to get changed in Py3.4/5 anymore, since this is not even a bug fix. I wouldn't even fight for backporting, although 3.7 seems ok for it. I agree that this code duplication is worth removing. I don't consider hashing the empty string important enough for leaving it in, especially because the net performance effect can at most be zero, if not negative, for the normal case of non-empty strings. ---------- nosy: +scoder versions: -Python 3.4, Python 3.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue35636> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
