Updates the requirements on flit-core to permit the latest version.

Changelog

Sourced from flit-core's changelog.

Release history

Version 4.1

  • License expressions with named exceptions, the WITH syntax, are accepted (:ghpull:809).
  • flit init allows dotted module names, for a component of a namespace package (:ghissue:822).
  • Fix line endings in .cmd script wrappers on Windows (:ghpull:824).

Version 4.0.3

  • Fix built wheels being created with overly restrictive 0600 permissions instead of the normal, world-readable 0644 (:ghpull:806).

Version 4.0.2

  • Fix invalid metadata files with Import-Name (:ghissue:813).

Version 4.0.1

No changes, but a new tag to trigger an upload to PyPI now that twine will accept it.

Version 4.0

This version contains breaking changes, but most projects which are already using the [project] table for metadata shouldn't be affected, and can simply change the flit_core <4 constraint to <5.

  • The [tool.flit.metadata] table is no longer used for project metadata (:ghpull:771). Use the newer :ref:[project] table <pyproject_toml_project> instead (or if that is not possible, build with flit_core <4).
  • :ref:build_cmd and :ref:publish_cmd no longer include files in the sdist based on what is committed in git or Mercurial (:ghpull:772). These commands now build packages more like Flit does when called as a backend by e.g. python -m build. Specify :ref:sdist include & exclude patterns <pyproject_toml_sdist> instead (Flit can help to generate these), or pass the --use-vcs option to get the old behaviour back.
  • flit_core now requires Python 3.8 or above (:ghpull:738)
  • The --setup-py option to generate sdists containing a setup.py file is no longer available (:ghpull:776).
  • Making typing stubs packages with a -stubs suffix will now work (:ghpull:742).
