devel/py-time-machine 2.13.0_1 MidnightBSD

time-machine is intended to combine the advantages of freezegun and libfaketime Python modules. It works without LD_PRELOAD but still mocks the standard library functions everywhere they may be referenced. It does so by modifying the built-in functions at the C level, to point them through wrappers that return different values when mocking. Normally in Python, built-in functions are immutable, but time-machine overcomes this by using C code to replace their function pointers.
