(assuming you don't want whatever is default) If you have a local directory `third-party-foo-lib` would that take precedence over a scm checkout? There would need to be a way to add this extra metadata (scm url and default branch) in distributions ... uh, that means changing setuptools/distutils? That means adoption issues, people won't always have latest and greatest. Thanks, -- Ionel Cristian Mărieș, http://blog.ionelmc.ro
