I should also mention that these are just my personal best practices that I've put together during my time working with/on OS projects. You'll almost never find two projects with identical packaging, so really at the end of the day, it's totally up to you and your particular project requirements.

You will definitely want to run unit tests without sdist and likewise, I'm sure you'll want to sdist without unit tests.

Unit tests are generally used pre-commit to ensure everything's working as expected in your environment and post commit to ensure there are no knock-on effects caused by your changes to the current code base. Running them during installation seems rather strange and useless to me.. > > 3) Docs are generally stored in a /doc directory at the root of your project. I haven't used pydoc, but if it's anything like sphinx, then best practice is to commit the source for your docs and have the users using the project generate the static content themselves (usually done through a make target). > > On 2012-10-27, at 7:02 AM, rambius <rambiusparkisanius@gmail.com> wrote: Demian Brecht @demianbrecht http://demianbrecht.github.com
