build(deps): constrain setuptools-scm due to cyclic dependency
Metadata
Current evaluation
PR #6123 by lengau merged as commit 22682ed3c, adding a temporary setuptools-scm pin to work around pypa/setuptools-scm#1302 cyclic dependency. Later reverted by #6131 (d7872467d).
Resolution: closed resolved
Reason: The PR was approved and merged into main as commit 22682ed3c, applying the dependency constraint in pyproject.toml. The workaround was later undone by PR #6131 (commit d7872467d, 'build(deps): unpin setuptools-scm') once the upstream setuptools-scm issue no longer affected the build.
