create_all incorrectly handles paths in Windows

(Platform: Windows 10 running Python 2.7)
The offending method is _gather_files
, line 177:
dirs = [(six.u(app.static_folder), app.static_url_path)]
The six.u
method escapes strings which causes Windows path backslashes to break:
- Original path: "C:\\Code\\test"
- Result of
six.u
: "C:\\Code\test" (with a tab character,\t
)
This causes create_all
to warn that the path does not exist, even though it does (due to the malformed path).
