[New-bugs-announce] [issue33559] Exception's repr change not documented

[Miro Hrončok]

New submission from Miro Hrončok <miro at hroncok.cz>:

Python 3.6.5 ...
>>> Exception('foo',)
Exception('foo',)

Python 3.7.0b4 ...
>>> Exception('foo',)
Exception('foo')

This is a change that might bit people who rely on doctesting.

It is not documented at https://docs.python.org/3.7/whatsnew/3.7.html

I'll send a PR.
