Description
I'm about to embark on once again syncing changes from zipp to zipfile
.
Historically, I've manually copied the contents of the cpython branch to the relevant files in this repository, but that process is error prone (because it involves syncing a whole file to a portion of another file).
I'd like to instead create packages for zipfile
and test_zipfile
, such that the functionality that's synced with zipp
can be kept separate from other zipfile functionality. Moreover, late versions of zipp
bring in extra dependencies so a package can also serve as a home to vendor such functionality.
I'm not suggesting to change the user's signature at all. The names will still be presented through the zipfile
module unchanged.
