git-p4, and python2 EOL

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We're coming up on when Python2 is end-of-lifed - we have until
January 1st 2020.

git-p4 uses python2, and doesn't work under python3 at all.

The problem is the conversions between Python3 unicode strings and git
(utf-8) and p4 (utf-8, except when it isn't).

I had a go at fixing this here:

You can see from the comments that I wasn't really finding it straightforward.

I think I know a bit more about the problem now, but before I start
having another go at fixing this, I wondered if anyone else had any
thoughts on this, or even better, some time to spend on this.

Thanks
Luke
