[issue32522] Add precision argument to datetime.now

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor <victor.stinner at gmail.com> added the comment:

> dt = datetime.now(precision='day')

Why not creating a date and then convert it to a datetime object?

> dt = datetime.now().replace(microseconds=0)

Yeah, that one annoys me as well, but I learnt the .replace(microseconds=0) hack, or how to format without microseconds.

By the way, are you aware of Python 3.7 enhancement of .isoformat(), the new timespec parameter?
