* Rather than raise TypeError, warn and call list() on the value.
* Fix tests, revise NEWS and whatsnew text.
* Revise documentation, a string is okay as well.
* Ensure 'requires' and 'obsoletes' are real lists.
* Test that requires and obsoletes are turned to lists.
When tk event handling is driven by IDLE's run loop, a confusing
and distracting queue.EMPTY traceback context is no longer added
to tk event exception tracebacks. The traceback is now the same
as when event handling is driven by user code. Patch based on
a suggestion by Serhiy Storchaka.
The original algorithm tried to delegate the folding to the tokens so
that those tokens whose folding rules differed could specify the
differences. However, this resulted in a lot of duplicated code because
most of the rules were the same.
The new algorithm moves all folding logic into a set of functions
external to the token classes, but puts the information about which
tokens can be folded in which ways on the tokens...with the exception of
mime-parameters, which are a special case (which was not even
implemented in the old folder).
This algorithm can still probably be improved and hopefully simplified
somewhat.
Note that some of the test expectations are changed. I believe the
changes are toward more desirable and consistent behavior: in general
when (re) folding a line the canonical version of the tokens is
generated, rather than preserving errors or extra whitespace.
Previously, CO_NOFREE was set in the compiler, which meant
it could end up being set incorrectly when code objects
were created directly. Setting it in the constructor based
on freevars and cellvars ensures it is always accurate,
regardless of how the code object is defined.
The current behaviour of yield expressions inside comprehensions and
generator expressions is essentially an accident of implementation - it
arises implicitly from the way the compiler handles yield expressions inside
nested functions and generators.
Since the current behaviour wasn't deliberately designed, and is inherently
confusing, we're deprecating it, with no current plans to reintroduce it.
Instead, our advice will be to use a named nested generator definition
for cases where this behaviour is desired.
In _io_FileIO_readall_impl(), lseek() and _Py_fstat_noraise() were called
without releasing the GIL. This can cause all threads to hang for
unlimited time when calling FileIO.read() and the NFS server is not
accessible.
* Fixed saving bytearrays.
* Identical objects will be saved only once.
* Equal references will be load as identical objects.
* Added support for saving and loading recursive data structures.
When PyGILState_Ensure() is called in a non-Python thread before
PyEval_InitThreads(), only call PyEval_InitThreads() after calling
PyThreadState_New() to fix a crash.
Add an unit test in test_embed.
* bpo-32101: Add sys.flags.dev_mode flag
Rename also the "Developer mode" to the "Development mode".
* bpo-32101: Add PYTHONDEVMODE environment variable
Mention it in the development chapiter.
* Add most_recent_first parameter to tracemalloc.Traceback.format to allow
reversing the order of the frames in the output
* Reversed default sorting of tracemalloc.Traceback frames
* Allowed negative limit, truncating from the other side.
``uuid.getnode()`` now preferentially returns universally administered MAC addresses if available, over locally administered MAC addresses. This makes a better guarantee for global uniqueness of UUIDs returned from ``uuid.uuid1()``. If only locally administered MAC addresses are available, the first such one found is returned.
Also improve internal code style by being explicit about ``return None`` rather than falling off the end of the function.
Improve the test robustness.
CPython migrated from CVS to Subversion, to Mercurial, and then to
Git. CVS and Subversion are not more used to develop CPython.
* platform module: drop support for sys.subversion. The
sys.subversion attribute has been removed in Python 3.3.
* Remove Misc/svnmap.txt
* Remove Tools/scripts/svneol.py
* Remove Tools/scripts/treesync.py
* distutils.config: Use the PyPIRCCommand.realm attribute if set
* turtledemo: wait until macOS osascript command completes to not
create a zombie process
* Tools/scripts/treesync.py: declare 'default_answer' and
'create_files' as globals to modify them with the command line
arguments. Previously, -y, -n, -f and -a options had no effect.

Some parts of the C API are only relevant to larger
applications embedding CPython as a runtime engine.
The helpers to test those APIs are already separated
out into Programs/_testembed.c, this update moves
the associated test cases out into their own dedicated
test file.
Improve UUID1 MAC address calculation and related tests.
There are two bits in the MAC address that are relevant to UUID1. The first is the locally administered vs. universally administered bit (second least significant of the first octet). Physical network interfaces such as ethernet ports and wireless adapters will always be universally administered, but some interfaces --such as the interface that MacBook Pros communicate with their Touch Bars-- are locally administered. The former are guaranteed to be globally unique, while the latter are demonstrably *not* globally unique and are in fact the same on every MBP with a Touch Bar. With this bit is set, the MAC is locally administered; with it unset it is universally administered.
The other bit is the multicast bit (least significant bit of the first octet). When no other MAC address can be found, RFC 4122 mandates that a random 48-bit number be generated. This randomly generated number *must* have the multicast bit set.
The improvements in uuid.py include:
* Preferentially return a universally administered MAC address, falling back to a locally administered address if none of the former can be found.
* Improve several coding style issues, such as adding explicit returns of None, using a more readable bitmask pattern, and assuming that the ultimate fallback, random MAC generation will not fail (and propagating any exception there instead of swallowing them).
Improvements in test_uuid.py include:
* Always testing the calculated MAC for universal administration, unless explicitly disabled (i.e. for the random case), or implicitly disabled due to running in the Travis environment. Travis test machines have *no* universally administered MAC address at the time of this writing.
The warnings module doesn't leak memory anymore in the hidden
warnings registry for the "ignore" action of warnings filters.
The warn_explicit() function doesn't add the warning key to the
registry anymore for the "ignore" action.
The test.support.skip_unless_bind_unix_socket() decorator is used to skip
asyncio tests that fail because the platform lacks a functional bind()
function for unix domain sockets (as it is the case for non root users on the
recent Android versions that run now SELinux in enforcing mode).
bpo-32096, bpo-30860: Partially revert the commit
2ebc5ce42a8a9e047e790aefbf9a94811569b2b6:
* Move structures back from Include/internal/mem.h to
Objects/obmalloc.c
* Remove _PyObject_Initialize() and _PyMem_Initialize()
* Remove Include/internal/pymalloc.h
* Add test_capi.test_pre_initialization_api():
Make sure that it's possible to call Py_DecodeLocale(), and then call
Py_SetProgramName() with the decoded string, before Py_Initialize().
PyMem_RawMalloc() and Py_DecodeLocale() can be called again before
_PyRuntimeState_Init().

Previously, 'msilib.OpenDatabase()' function raised a
cryptical exception message when it couldn't open or
create an MSI file. For example:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
_msi.MSIError: unknown error 6e
