[ruby-core:97187] [Ruby master Bug#14891] Pathname#join has different behaviour to File.join

From: me@...
Date: 2020-02-18 07:58:11 UTC
List: ruby-core #97187
Issue #14891 has been updated by jnchito (Junichi Ito).


I am wondering about the current behavior of Pathname#join, too. Are there any useful use cases for `Pathname.new('/a').join('/c', '/b').to_s #=> "/b"`? I think it should be `Pathname.new('/a').join('/c', '/b').to_s #=> "/a/c/b` like File#join. I'd like to know the basic idea behind this design.

----------------------------------------
Bug #14891: Pathname#join has different behaviour to File.join
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/14891#change-84295

* Author: robotdana (Dana Sherson)
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
* ruby -v: 2.6.0-preview2, and before
* Backport: 2.3: UNKNOWN, 2.4: UNKNOWN, 2.5: UNKNOWN
----------------------------------------
~~~ ruby
Pathname.new('/a').join('/b').to_s
# => "/b"
File.join(Pathname.new('/a'), '/b').to_s
# => "/a/b"
~~~

in my case `'/b'` was in a variable and it wasn't immediately obvious why it wasn't working when I moved to use Pathname

This seems to not be desired behaviour as it's different to `File.join`, and this case isn't document anywhere.

Can we either change the behaviour to treat the "other" of `Pathname#+` as always relative (possibly just removing a leading slash), or add this case to the documentation?
