Overview:
Small bug: When we copy metadata, we pass its
value
attribute into thefile_meta_object
method which updates the values to reflect the new system/path. This inadvertently updates the values on the original metadata object. This hasn't caused problems yet but it does leave the data in an invalid state. for the remainder of the request This PR changes the method to use a deep copy so the original dict is unaffected.PR Status:
