PEP 660 – Editable installs for pyproject.toml based builds (wheel based)

コンフリクトする2つの期待

1. It should allow developers to add new files (or split/rename existing ones) and have them automatically exposed.

2. It should behave as close as possible to a regular installation and help users to detect problems (e.g. new files not being included in the distribution).

In this mode, new files won’t be exposed and the editable installs will try to mimic as much as possible the behavior of a regular install.
