As a result, on Windows + and other case-insensitive file systems, files with names such as + 'readme.txt' or 'README.TXT' will be omitted from the distribution and a + warning will be issued indicating that 'README.txt' was not found. Other + filenames affected are: + + - README.rst + - README + - setup.cfg + - setup.py (or the script name) + - test/test*.py + + Any users producing distributions with filenames that match those above + case-insensitively, but not case-sensitively, should rename those files in + their repository for better portability. + +--- 5.8 --- |
