Join `Pathlike` Object to Tree by George-Ogden · Pull Request #2094 · gitpython-developers/GitPython
Pull request overview
This PR extends the Tree.join and Tree.__truediv__ API to support pathlike objects (such as pathlib.Path), enabling more Pythonic path handling when traversing Git tree objects. Previously, users had to explicitly convert Path objects to strings; now they can use them directly with the / operator.
- Type annotations updated from
strtoPathLikefor both methods - Implementation uses
os.fspath()to convert PathLike objects to strings - Comprehensive test coverage added for PathLike support with various scenarios
