Thanks, Matt & Philip. I'll get them out of source control - since those files were deployed in the installed egg, I thought they were needed to be under source control. Just like one can specify temp build & dist dirs to be used in the build/install process, is it possible to have setuptools place these files in a user-defined dir... that'd make it easy to implement the "make clean" equivalent to ensure these files don't show up as being "privtate" files in one's tree.

I typically add the .egg-info folder to the "ignored" files in version control since the files in there will be automatically regenerated by the build process. Unless you have custom files

That's correct. Only projects that explicitly put files under .egg-info need to track them in version control, because all the automatically generated files are regenerated from setup.py whenever any command that needs them is run.
