setup.cfg and _about_.py

setup.cfg is a config file that host the version number and the pypi-up file to update.

_about_.py contains the package's info, such as name, author, license and __version__ which is the version number of the application. __version__ is required in the file.

The _about_.py file can be called in your application as normal module

import __about__

print(__about__.__version__)

With these two file, pypi-up will be able to increase the version and update the _about_.py effortlessly. You don't need to touch the versioning file at all.

By the default the _about_.py is at the root of the directory.

But if you want to place it somewhere else, in your setup.cfg change the following to your path

# setup.cfg

[pypi-up]
version-file = $path/__about__.py  
auto-increment = patch

The auto-increment accepts patch, minor, major or blank.

When pypi-up it will auto-increment the version instead of doing it manually all the time.
