New submission from Valdemar Rolfsen <valdemar.rolfsen at gmail.com>:
Inconsistency in strftime between python 3.6 and 3.7 when parsing first-century dates.
Python 3.6
>>> datetime.datetime.strptime(d, "%Y-%m-%d").strftime("%Y-%m-%d")
'0020-10-05'
Python 3.7
>>> datetime.datetime.strptime("0020-10-05", "%Y-%m-%d").strftime("%Y-%m-%d")
'20-10-05'
This means that the following would work for 3.6 but raise a ValueError for 3.7:
>>> d = "0020-10-05"
>>> d = datetime.datetime.strptime(d, "%Y-%m-%d").strftime("%Y-%m-%d")
>>> d = datetime.datetime.strptime(d, "%Y-%m-%d").strftime("%Y-%m-%d")
