Issue 1688564: os.path.join.doc should mention absolute paths (original) (raw)
Currently, automatically generated docs from os.path.join do not mention that all paths prior to the last absolute path are discarded.
The doc says: "Join two or more pathname components, inserting '/' as needed"
From this documentation, it is not obvious that os.path.join("abc", "/cde", "fgh") results in "/cde/fgh".
