Subject: Patch #103473 from dougfort: Some sites (amazon.com for one) drop
X-Git-Tag: v2.1b1~255
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c05abb3bdaa87b6e5ea2d6db1e5d6145ae2b0440;p=python

Patch #103473 from dougfort: Some sites (amazon.com for one) drop
cookies that contain '=' as part of the value. This patch modifies
Cookie.py to allow '=' as a legal character, and to make the key
search nongreedy so it stops at the first '='.
