… by copy and pickle (pythonGH-6216) This also fixes python/typingGH-512 This also fixes python/typingGH-511 As was discussed in both issues, some typing forms deserve to be treated as immutable by copy and pickle modules, so that: * copy(X) is X * deepcopy(X) is X * loads(dumps(X)) is X GH- pickled by reference This PR adds such behaviour to: * Type variables * Special forms like Union, Any, ClassVar * Unsubscripted generic aliases to containers like List, Mapping, Iterable This not only resolves inconsistencies mentioned in the issues, but also improves backwards compatibility with previous versions of Python (including 3.6). Note that this requires some dances with __module__ for type variables (similar to NamedTuple) because the class TypeVar itself is define in typing, while type variables should get module where they were defined. https://bugs.python.org/issue32873 (cherry picked from commit 8349403) Co-authored-by: Ivan Levkivskyi <[email protected]>
