....... .......
The value of the fold attribute will only be saved in pickles created
with protocol version 4 (introduced in Python 3.4) or greater.
Pickle sizes for the ``datetime.datetime`` and ``datetime.time`` Pickle sizes for the ``datetime.datetime`` and ``datetime.time``
objects will not change. The ``fold`` value will be encoded in the objects will not change. The ``fold`` value will be encoded in the
first bit of the 5th byte of the ``datetime.datetime`` pickle payload first bit of the 3rd (1st) byte of ``datetime.datetime``
or the 2nd byte of the datetime.time. In the `current implementation`_ (``datetime.time``) pickle payload. In the `current implementation`_
these bytes are used to store minute value (0-59) and the first bit is these byte are used to store the month (1-12) and hour (0-23) values
always 0. (This change only affects pickle format. In the C and the first bit is always 0. We picked these bytes because they are

an exception rather than an instance with out of range components.
