Note how to write version file without building #27

Closed effigies closed 1 year ago

effigies commented 1 year ago

Coming from setuptools, it took me a bit to figure out that I should run hatch build --hooks-only to do the equivalent of python -m setuptools_scm and write the version file into the source tree.

It might be useful to have in the README, for others who are trying to make sure their current workflow has equivalents in hatch before committing enough to dive deeply into the main hatch docs.

Or you can just close the issue, since hopefully I've put enough keywords in here that people can find it without any more work on your part. :-)
