Previously, setting
TMPDIR="$(pwd)/smth-inside"
would cause thein-tree PEP 517 build backend to go into infinite recursion,
attempting to copy the project directory into a nested folder.
Specifically, this is happening in the Fedora land because macros
used in RPM packaging (
pyproject-rpm-macros
) are setting it uplike this. Additionally, this is only happening with
pip wheel
anddoesn't affect
pyproject-build
, because the latter pre-copies theproject directory by itself early, and changes current working
directory to it while the former does not.
This patch addresses the issue by excluding the temporary directory
from traversal when copying the directory tree within the build
backend.
Fixes #992.
