I have had no problems using pip to install these packages in edit mode with only a setup.cfg. I'll check back.

@aaraney What version of python3 and pip are you using? I tested this on Python 3.8.10 and pip 21.2.4 and I did not need a setup.py to install these packages in editable mode.

I have had no problems using pip to install these packages in edit mode with only a setup.cfg. I'll check back.

When I updated to pip 21.2.4 my issues went away and I was able to install in editable mode with --use-feature=in-tree-build. I checked the change log and downgraded versions programatically. This issue arrises pip <21.1.

It looks like 19.3.1 solved the issue of packages without setup.py. With this knowledge, I will go ahead and close this. I don't think it seems necessary to include this now that pip is two major versions ahead now.
