For reasons I don't understand, https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/22229 failed to backport to 3.9. The message says:
Sorry @eamanu <https://github.com/eamanu>, I had trouble checking out the |3.9| backport branch. Please backport using cherry_picker <https://pypi.org/project/cherry-picker/> on command line.
I don't know if this problem with checking out the 3.9 backport branch is part of my problem or not. The backport to 3.8 succeeded.
So, I'm trying to run cherry_picker, as suggested. It's set up locally with the most recent version (1.3.2). My local repo has an origin and an upstream remote:
[~/local/python/cpython]$ git remote -v origin git@github.com:ericvsmith/cpython.git (fetch) origin git@github.com:ericvsmith/cpython.git (push) upstream git@github.com:python/cpython.git (fetch) upstream git@github.com:python/cpython.git (push)
When I run cherry_picker, it says "Failed to push to origin ☹". I don't know why that would be, or what the implications are (except the backport not succeeding). The full output of running cherry_picker is below. As near as I can tell, there are no conflicts.
Any ideas? If I can't figure it out, I'll just leave this minor documentation fix in master and 3.8, but not 3.9.
