I apologize for misunderstanding you -- I should read more carefully. I don't see the point of the 'setup_requires' bit: if you are working in a checkout, you should be using 'python setup.py develop', which Just Works(TM) without 'setuptools-git'. 'setuptools-git' really only matters for the *maintainers*, who need to ensure that the non-Python files get bundled in when they run 'python setup.py sdist' to make a release (we could subclass the distutils 'sdist' command to barf in the absence of 'setuptools-git', but That-Way-Lies-Madness).
