After I sent this I realized its more complicated than this. The above code will fail joining (r'C:\a\b', r'D:\x\y').
os.path.join(r'c:\abc', r'\x\y', keep_drive_unc=True) 'c:\\x\\y' os.path.join(r'\\abc\def\ghi', r'\x\y', keep_drive_unc=True) '\\\\abc\\def\\x\\y'
Shouldn't that be '\\\\abc\\x\\y'?
