Description
import datetime from django.utils.duration import duration_string print(duration_string(datetime.timedelta(seconds=-5)))
This should print -00:00:05
but instead it prints -1 23:59:55
which is interpreted as -1 day, plus 23 hours, plus 59 minutes, plus 55 seconds.
I don't think it's intuitive to support durations that have different signs on the number of days vs hours/minutes/seconds. Note that ISO8601 timestamps just have one sign that applies to all components.
