Additional changes needed to backport:
- dropped legacy SVN support from patchcheck
- use subprocess.PIPE to silence expected error output
- don't try to use subprocess.Popen as a context manager
- don't try to pass a keyword argument to str.split()
(cherry picked from commit 482f7a274f)
* Backports ensurepip to the 2.7 branch
* Backports some of the improved documentation to the 2.7 branch.
* Adds a private backport of the 3.x mock library as test._mock_backport
to enable saner testing of ensurepip.
Key Differences from 3.x:
* Ensurepip does not have any Makefile integration, specifically
it is not ran by default in the Makefile.
* There is no venv module in 2.7, so downstream distributors can
completely disable ensurepip, ideally with a message redirecting
to the correct way to install pip.
* To match the ``python`` command in 2.7, ensurepip will install
the unversioned ``pip`` command as well.
* No-op and hide --default-pip and add --no-default-pip to restore
the 3.x behavor on 2.7.
* Now the source encoding declaration on the second line isn't effective if
the first line contains anything except a comment. This affects compile(),
eval() and exec() too.
* IDLE now ignores the source encoding declaration on the second line if the
first line contains anything except a comment.
* 2to3 and the findnocoding.py script now ignore the source encoding
declaration on the second line if the first line contains anything except
a comment.
requires them. Disable executable bits and shebang lines in test and
benchmark files in order to prevent using a random system python, and in
source files of modules which don't provide command line interface.
Now pindent.py works with a "with" statement. pindent.py no longer produces
improper indentation. pindent.py now works with continued lines broken after
"class" or "def" keywords and with continuations at the start of line. Added
regression tests for pindent.py. Modernized pindent.py.
