This should fix bpo-42924.

Before, using the * operator to repeat a bytearray would copy data from the start of the internal buffer (ob_bytes) and not from the start of the actual data (ob_start). The assert in this example used to fail, now it should pass.

ba = bytearray(b'0123456789abcdef')
ba[:10] = b'test'
assert bytes(ba) == bytes(ba * 1)

This might be simply due to a missing "GitHub Name" entry in one's b.p.o account settings. This is necessary for legal reasons before we can look at this contribution. Please follow the steps outlined in the CPython devguide to rectify this issue.

Thanks for the comments, those should be addressed now. I hope the test case is in the right place (ByteArrayTest.test_repeat_after_setslice in Lib/test/test_bytes.py).
