fix: combine aliases on windows base dirs (ie: X:\) (fixes: #577) by vaab · Pull Request #1080 · nedbat/coveragepy (original) (raw)

Illustrating a valid fix for my issue, that is still happening ;-)

I had a (very quick) look at running the tests, but unfortunately I had a lot of tests failing on the pristine source prior to any change. So I figured I missed a lot of dependencies or information to get this running properly. I'm afraid that I couldn't check that I didn't break anything properly before submitting that code change.

If you think this code change is definitively worth it, I'll take the time to add tests to your convenience if required.
