The result from the pytest_assertrepr_compare hook should not include
any newlines since that will confuse the mini-formatting language used
by assertion.util.format_explanation. So simply escape the included
newlines, this way hook writers do not have to worry about this at
all.
Fixes issue 453.
Such reference cycles unnecessarily cause Python interpreter not to garbage
collect the objects referenced in those cycles as soon they could be collected,
and in turn cause the tests to use more memory than is strictly necessary.

Prevent error on exit if some code messes with sys.meta_path and removes the
assertionrewrite hook (CaptureMock seems to do this):
File "/Users/marca/dev/hg-repos/pytest/_pytest/assertion/__init__.py", line 64, in pytest_unconfigure
sys.meta_path.remove(hook)
ValueError: list.remove(x): x not in list

branch : sys_meta_path_remove_hook_only_if_present
If the compared text was in bytes and not actually valid text
(i.e. could not be encoded to text/unicode using the default encoding)
then the assertrepr would fail with an EncodingError. This ensures
that the internal string is always valid unicode, converting any bytes
safely to valid unicode. This is done using repr() which then needs
post-processing to fix the encompassing quotes and un-escape newlines.
This fixes issue 429.
The only remaining 'py.test' references are:
* those referring to the 'py.test' executable
* those in code explicitly testing py.test/pytest module compatibility
* those in old CHANGES documentation
* those in documentation generated based on external data
* those in seemingly unfinished & unmaintained Japanese documentation
Minor stylistic changes and typo corrections made to documentation next to
several applied py.test --> pytest content changes.
Starting with Python 3.3, NamespacePath passed to importlib hooks
seem to have lost the ability to be accessed by index.
We wrap the index access in a try..except and wrap the path in a
list if it happens.
Fixes#383.
Before this was only done at the time the assertion plugin was loaded.
This lead to counter-intuitive behaviour where two subdirectories with
a pytest_assertrepr_compare hook in their conftest.py would not work,
only one would ever be used.
This defers assiging the _pytest.assertion.util._reprcompare function
until the item is loaded (pytest_runtest_setup) so that it can use the
hookrelay of the test item to find the appropriate
pytest_assertrepr_compare hook for the item.
This fixes issue #77.
