1.5.x sdist no longer contains examples, docs, and tests

[davidhewitt]

Ungh, must be something different in the build environment. I'm prioritising the PyO3 0.17 release first, I'll investigate this in a week or two and push 1.5.3. If you need it sooner a PR to help things along is appreciated 🙂

Which MANIFEST.in do you prefer,

graft examples
recursive-include tests *.py

or

recursive-include examples *.py *.rs *.toml *.ini *.cfg *.sh *.lock *.in *.txt *.html *.md *.yml Dockerfile
recursive-include tests *.py

?

[davidhewitt]

Probably better to go for recursive-include so that we don't accidentally ship build products etc? Has the downside of needing to opt-in to example contents though.

[davidhewitt]

I'm not sure why they are now omitted from sdist.

On further reading, I think what happened is we stopped using setuptools_scm - I'll see if I can make it used only in sdist step.

[davidhewitt]

Yes, it looks like just installing setuptools-scm for the sdist step is enough to fix the sdist. Thanks for reporting, I'll push 1.5.2 later today.
