* bpo-16468: Clarify which objects can be passed to "choices" in argparse ↵Raymond Hettinger2019-08-291-3/+2
| | | | (GH-15566)
* bpo-26967: fix flag grouping with allow_abbrev=False (GH-14316)Zac Hatfield-Dodds2019-07-141-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | The `allow_abbrev` option for ArgumentParser is documented and intended to disable support for unique prefixes of --options, which may sometimes be ambiguous due to deferred parsing. However, the initial implementation also broke parsing of grouped short flags, such as `-ab` meaning `-a -b` (or `-a=b`). Checking the argument for a leading `--` before rejecting it fixes this. This was prompted by pytest-dev/pytest#5469, so a backport to at least 3.8 would be great :smile: And this is my first PR to CPython, so please let me know if I've missed anything! https://bugs.python.org/issue26967
* bpo-23378: Add an extend action to argparse (GH-13305)Batuhan Taşkaya2019-05-211-0/+9

* Fix doc for `add_subparsers` arguments (GH-8884)Anthony Sottile2018-08-241-1/+1
| | | There was a missing comma.
* bpo-33109: argparse subparsers are once again not required by default (GH-6919)Ned Deily2018-05-241-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | bpo-26510 in 3.7.0a2 changed the behavior of argparse to make subparsers required by default, returning to the behavior of 2.7 and 3.2. The behavior was changed in 3.3 to be no longer required. While it might make more sense to have the default to required, compatibility with 3.3 through 3.6 is probably less disruptive than trying to reintroduce compatibility with 2.7 at this point. This change restores the 3.6 behavior.
* Fix error messages in argparse examples (GH-6435)suic862018-04-111-2/+2
| | | | The examples in argparse documentation use `error: too few arguments` error message which was removed in this commit f97c59a in 2011.
