Fork of pathlib aiming to support the full stdlib Python API.

The old pathlib module on bitbucket is in bugfix-only mode. The goal of pathlib2 is to provide a backport of standard pathlib module which tracks the standard library module, so all the newest features of the standard pathlib can be used also on older Python versions.

Standalone releases are available on PyPI: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pathlib2/

The main development takes place in the Python standard library: see the Python developer's guide. In particular, new features should be submitted to the Python bug tracker.

Issues that occur in this backport, but that do not occur not in the standard Python pathlib module can be submitted on the pathlib2 bug tracker.

Refer to the standard pathlib documentation.
