no published sdist for 2.4.2

[dhellmann]

I'm trying to prepare a build of sacrebleu from source but there is no sdist on pypi for the 2.4.2 release. Is that an oversight or are you no longer publishing sdists?

I confirm https://pypi.org/project/sacrebleu/2.4.2/#files is missing sacrebleu-2.4.2.tar.gz (it includes only sacrebleu-2.4.2-py3-none-any.whl). I guess @mjpost will confirm it is an oversight.
Meanwhile, you can obtain https://github.com/mjpost/sacrebleu/archive/refs/tags/v2.4.2.tar.gz from GitHub.
BTW: sacrebleu is a pure-Python package (no compilation of C/C++ is needed), so even the whl file contains (just) all the source codes.

Thanks, @martinpopel. The tool we're working with automates builds from sdists, so I thought it was worth checking and I appreciate the quick response. We can do some work to configure it to build from that source archive if we have to, but if you consider it an oversight I may just wait a day or so to see if you have time to upload the sdist.

I'd be happy to help you set up a GitHub action for publishing releases from tags, too. I have it configured in several repos, and find it really simplifies things. If you're interested, I could send you a PR and help you debug any issues setting up the authentication. Let me know.

Hi @dhellmann, this would be great to have. We'd be very grateful you'd contribute a PR and tell us how to make use of the feature. It's one of those things I can never seem to make time for.

Great, I'll be happy to help. Today is pretty full, but I should have time later this week to prepare a PR for you based on what I do in other repos like this: https://github.com/python-wheel-build/fromager/blob/main/.github/workflows/python-publish.yaml

There's a link in the top of that file that points to the GitHub.com docs for publishing python packages.

The main thing that I stumbled over when setting up the trusted publishing hook was failing to set the "environment" value.
