tox crashes due to pbr error "Versioning for this project requires either an sdist tarball, or ..."

[liborjelinek]

tox command in just created new project based on this template crashes with pbr this exception:

Versioning for this project requires either an sdist tarball, or access to an upstream git repository. It's also possible that there is a mismatch between the package name in setup.cfg and the argument given to pbr.version.VersionInfo. Project name sphinxcontrib-foo was given, but was not able to be found.
error in setup command: Error parsing /Users/matt/tmp/sphinxcontrib-test/setup.cfg: Exception: Versioning for this project requires either an sdist tarball, or access to an upstream git repository. It's also possible that there is a mismatch between the package name in setup.cfg and the argument given to pbr.version.VersionInfo. Project name sphinxcontrib-foo was given, but was not able to be found.

I didn't do anything except creation of sphinxcontrib-foo:

$ cookiecutter https://github.com/sphinx-contrib/cookiecutter.git

github_org [sphinx-contrib]: 
package_name [The name of the extension package]: foo
project_name [sphinxcontrib-foo]: 
short_description [A short description of the extension]: foo description
author_name [Your name]: foo author
author_email [Your email]: foo email

and executing tox:

$ tox

Is there any pbr guru that could help to fix it?
