os.path.samestat incorrectly states "Accepts a path-like object"

[bluetech]

Documentation

Unless I am in some way confused, that statement is incorrect. The function only accepts stat objects.

cpython/Lib/genericpath.py

Lines 121 to 126 in 624bf52

	# Are two stat buffers (obtained from stat, fstat or lstat)
	# describing the same file?
	def samestat(s1, s2):
	"""Test whether two stat buffers reference the same file"""
	return (s1.st_ino == s2.st_ino and
	s1.st_dev == s2.st_dev)
