code pools

[jawadnisar]

can any body tell me please that why magento has removed local code pool in version 1.9.1.0 and onwards

They have?

Or are you referring the ability to copy core code from app/code/core/Mage/? into app/code/local/Mage/? and have it automatically overwrite core?

i want to say that when i go in the folder structure of version 1.9.0 

app > code

there i can see 3 folders namely

1- community

2- core

3- local

but when i go in the folder structure of version 1.9.10

app > code

there i can see only 2 folders namely

1- community

2- core

where is the local folder

In 1.6.2.0, they included an empty folder so it would automatically be there.

Since there apparently were no stock "local" code pool modules included from 1.7.x.x and up,  app/code/local sporadically was not created and also the empty folder was not included so it would automatically create.

In 1.9.2.0, they once again included an empty folder so it would be automatically created.

Just create app/code/local for use in your local modules you create.
