[New-bugs-announce] [issue19856] Possible bug in shutil.move() on Windows

[Serhiy Storchaka]

New submission from Serhiy Storchaka:

Perhaps following code fails on Windows (while successes on Linux): 

import os, shutil
os.makedirs('foo')
os.makedirs('bar/boo')
shutil.move('foo/', 'bar/')

However shutil.move('foo', 'bar/') and shutil.move('foo\\', 'bar/') should work.
