#22539 closed Bug (fixed)

Model.full_clean() mutates exclude argument

Description

If model.full_clean() gets a list argument for exclude, and after running clean_fields() errors are raised, it appends the names of those fields to the exclude argument, mutating it and causing a really bad side effect which is not expected by the user.

Instead, the list should be copied if it is not None.
