Meson-python

======

- Fix regression in cross-compilation via ``$ARCHFLAGS`` on macOS where the
cross file was written in the build directory before it was created,
resulting in an error.
- Do not require setting ``$_PYTHON_HOST_PLATFORM`` when cross-compiling via
``$ARCHFLAGS`` on macOS.
- Add the ``--quiet`` option when invoking ``meson install``. The installation
paths are a detail of the ``meson-python`` implementation and are generally
not interesting for the user.
- Fix terminal logging when overriding the current line when listing files
added to the wheel.
- Improve the error message emitted when a package split between the
``purelib`` and ``platlib`` wheel locations is detected.

======

- Add support for editable installs.
- Adjust the default build options passed to ``meson setup``.
- Make sure that the directory where the wheel or sdist build artifacts are
created exists. Fixes building with PDM.
- Fix the specification of the C++ compiler for cross-compilation with
``$ARCHFLAGS`` on macOS.
- Pass the ``--reconfigure`` option to ``meson setup`` if and only if the
specified build directory exists and is a valid Meson build directory.
- Pass the ``--no-rebuild`` option to ``meson install``.
- Allow to select the files to be included in the wheel via Meson install tags
passing the ``--tags`` option to ``meson install`` via ``pyproject.toml`` or
config settings.
- Do not use the ``meson compile`` indirection to build the project, except on
Windows, where it is required to setup the Visual Studio environment.
- Do not add ``ninja`` to the build dependencies if ``$NINJA`` is set but it
does not point to a ``ninja`` executable with the required minimum version.
- Verify at run time that Meson satisfies the minimum required version.
- Place native and cross files in the build directory instead of in the
source directory.
- Drop the ``typing-extensions`` package dependency.
- Add dependency on ``setuptools`` on Python 3.12 and later. This fixes build
error due to Meson depending on the ``distutils`` standard library module
removed in Python 3.12.
- Bump the required ``pyproject-metadata`` version to 0.7.1.
- Allows some more cross-compilation setups by not checking extension modules
filename suffixes against the suffixes accepted by the current interpreter.
- Raise an error when a file that would be installed by Meson cannot be mapped
to a wheel location.
- Raise an error when a package is split between ``platlib`` and ``purelib``.
- Do not generate a warning when ``pyproject.toml`` does not contain a
``project`` section and Python package metadata is derived from ``meson.build``.
- Improve reporting of ``pyproject.toml`` validation errors.
- Fix validation of tool specific options in ``pyproject.toml``. In
particular, allows to specify an incomplete set of options in the
``tool.meson-python.args`` table.

Walt, Thomas Li --- 18-04-2023.

======

- Fix regression where the ``$MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET`` environment variable
was accidentally renamed to ``$MACOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET``.

Filipe Laíns, Stefan van der Walt --- 17-02-2023.

======

- Require the ``typing_extensions`` package for Python < 3.10 rather than for
Python < 3.8 only.
- Emit an error message and raise ``SystemExit`` on expected errors.
- Revise error messages for consistency.
- Support setuptools-style macOS cross compilation via ``$ARCHFLAGS``.
- Allow to overwrite macOS platform tag via ``$_PYTHON_HOST_PLATFORM``.
- Include an hint with the most similar known option names in the error
message emitted when an unknown config setting is encountered.

Caswell --- 22-12-2022.

======

- Project moved to the ``mesonbuild`` organization.
- Determine wheel tags by introspecting the Python interpreter.
- Allow users to pass options directly to Meson via the ``dist``, ``setup``,
``compile``, and ``install`` entries in the ``tools.meson-python.args``
table in ``pyproject.toml``, or via the ``dist-args``, ``setup-args``,
``compile-args``, and ``install-args`` config settings.
- Use the system ``ninja`` if possible. Return ``ninja`` as a build dependency
otherwise.
- Include files generated by ``mesonadd_dist_script`` in the sdist.
- Use ``tomllib`` on Python 3.11 or later.
- Drop the ``wheel`` package dependency.
- Fix bug where the ``entry_points.txt`` file was not generated.
- Fix bug where Cygwin Python extensions were not being noticed.

Ben Greiner, Daniele Nicolodi, Filipe Laíns, Henry Schreiner, Matthias Köppe,
Ralf Gommers, Sam Thursfield, Thomas Li --- 21-11-2022.

======

- Ignore the minor version on macOS 11 or later, to match the behavior of
``pypa/packaging``.
