The hook is also so a tool like tox or TravisCI or twine can produce a sdist that can be uploaded to PyPI or similar. Sent from my iPhone

1. Create a temp directory 2. Call a hook to get the "source" 3. Put the source in the temp directory (unpack, copy, ask the hook to put the files in here directly, whatever) 4. Call the "build wheel" hook on the temp directory
