v56.0.0
Deprecations
* The license_file option is now marked as deprecated. Use license_files instead.
Breaking Changes
* If neither license_file nor license_files is specified, the sdist option will now auto-include files that match the following patterns: LICEN[CS]E*, COPYING*, NOTICE*, AUTHORS*. This matches the behavior of bdist_wheel.
Changes
* The license_file and license_files options now support glob patterns.
* Implemented VendorImporter.find_spec() method to get rid of ImportWarning that Python 3.10 emits when only the old-style importer hooks are present
Documentation changes
* Added documentation for the license_files option.
v55.0.0
Breaking Changes
