Fix the following warning when test_inspect.py is compiled to
test_inspect.pyc:

test_inspect.py:505: SyntaxWarning: tuple parameter unpacking has been removed in 3.x
  def spam_deref(a, b, c, d=3, (e, (f,))=(4, (5,)), *g, **h):

Replace also test.test_support import with test.support.

Don't stop the worker thread if a child failed.

support.unlink() now only ignores ENOENT and ENOTDIR, instead of
ignoring any OSError exception.

It was possible to get a core dump by using uninitialized
_json objects. Now __new__ methods create initialized objects.
__init__ methods are removed..
(cherry picked from commit 76a3e51a)

ExpatParser.parse() of xml.sax.xmlreader now closes the source: close
the file object or the urllib object if source is a string (not an
open file-like object).

Add test_parse_close_source() unit test.

(cherry picked from commit 685cdb9a)

This reverts commit 0f4ed2cd (though, the tests are retained) and the followup 58ab4b57.

See discussion on bpo-29094.

Don't rebuild generated files based on file modification time
anymore, the action is now explicit. Replace "make touch"
with "make regen-all".

Changes:

* Remove "make touch", Tools/hg/hgtouch.py and .hgtouch
* Add a new "make regen-all" command to rebuild all generated files
* Add subcommands to only generate specific files:

  - regen-ast: Include/Python-ast.h and Python/Python-ast.c
  - regen-grammar: Include/graminit.h and Python/graminit.c
  - regen-opcode-targets: Python/opcode_targets.h

* Add PYTHON_FOR_REGEN variable
* pgen is now only built by by "make regen-grammar"
* Add $(srcdir)/ prefix to paths to source files to handle correctly
  compilation outside the source directory

Oops, I forgot that PermissionError was introduced in Python 3.3!
Replace PermissionError with OSError and check on errno.

Add setUpModule() and tearDownModule() functions to test_site to
save/restore sys.path at the module level to prevent warning if the
user site directory is created, since site.addsitedir() modifies
sys.path.

DummyFTPServer now calls del_channel() on bind() error to prevent the
following warning in TestIPv6Environment.setUpClass():

Warning -- asyncore.socket_map was modified by test_ftplib
  Before: {}
  After:  {3: <test.test_ftplib.DummyFTPServer 127.0.0.1:0 at ...>}

Use EnvironGuard on BuildExtTestCase to save/restore os.environ, to fix the
following warning:

Warning -- os.environ was modified by test_distutils

MSVCCompiler.initialize() of distutils.msvc9compiler modifies
os.environ.

Replace
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
with
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>.

* Add Appveyor to Python 2.7 branch

* Adapt AppVeyor config for Python 2

* Replace -j0 with -j2: -j0 is ignored on Python 2
* Replace --slowest with --slow
* Remove --timeout option (it was introduced in Python 3)

Don't set cursorSetReturnsNone to DEFAULT_CURSOR_SET_RETURNS_NONE
anymore if self->myenvobj is set.

Fix a GCC warning on the strange indentation.

Backport the CHILD_ERROR status from master: a test is considered as
failed if a worker process running a test exited with a code
different than zero.

Change also the output: write stdout and stderr of the child process
after the test name, instead of writing it before.

accumulate_result(): don't use time of CHILD_ERROR or INTERRUPTED
results.

Use EnvironGuard on InstallTestCase and UtilTestCase.

Backport fixes from master to prevent the following warning:

Warning -- os.environ was modified by test_distutils

Ignore more generated files and test data downloaded by tests.

In PySlice_IndicesEx, clip the step to [-PY_SSIZE_T_MAX,
PY_SSIZE_T_MAX] rather than [PY_SSIZE_T_MIN, PY_SSIZE_T_MAX].

(cherry picked from commit e6fc7401)

Buildbots don't run tests with -vv and so only log "xxx was modified
by test_xxx" which is not enough to debug such random issue. In many
cases, I'm unable to reproduce the warning and so unable to fix it.

Always logging the value before and value after should help to debug
such warning on buildbots.

AsyncoreEchoServer of test_ssl now calls
asyncore.close_all(ignore_all=True) to ensure that
asyncore.socket_map is cleared once the test completes, even if
ConnectionHandler was not correctly unregistered.

Fix the following warning:

Warning -- asyncore.socket_map was modified by test_ssl
  Before: {}
  After:  {6: <test.test_ssl.AsyncoreEchoServer.EchoServer.ConnectionHandler>}

Don't test if .git/HEAD file exists, but only if the .git file (or
directory) exists.

Use --short form of git hash.  Use output from "git describe" for tag.

Expected outputs:
1. previous hg
2. previous git
3. updated git

To unify running tests in Python 2.7 and Python 3, the test
package can be run as a script.  This is equivalent to running the
test.regrtest module as a script.

Based on commit 5c4b0d06 by Ned
Deily, which is based on original patches by Brett Cannon and Steve
Dower.

Remove also the private _Py_svnversion() function and SVNVERSION
variable.

Note: Py_SubversionRevision() and Py_SubversionShortBranch() are
unchanged, they are part of the public API.

To simplify backports from Python 3, the test.test_support module
was converted into a package and renamed to test.support.  The
test.script_helper module was moved into the test.support package.
Names test.test_support and test.script_helper are left as aliases to
test.support and test.support.script_helper.

Backport enhancements from master, commits:

  Wirtel.
* cf0ac6a7: Fix "make tags": set
  locale to C to call sort
* 8a543c0b: `make tags` fixes (GH-717)
