Let me just throw in that my uses cases for all of my projects so far
are:
1. There should not be any file included in the distribution that
isn't included under VCS.
1.a. *except* that there is this one Python source code file named
_version.py which is autogenerated from VCS and is not itself stored
in VCS, documented here:
http://allmydata.org/trac/darcsver/browser/README.txt
2. There should not be any file included under VCS that isn't
included in the distribution.
Therefore, for me, setuptools's VCS-integration and
include_package_data=True is perfect.
