Thanks! I admit that I am not very good at the whole packaging thing, so I'm happy to just get stuff to work at all usually. I definitely appreciate work that can make this more efficient and maintainable (and up to date with modern methods for doing these things).

I note that the version information has disappeared -- how does that get handled with this?

I think the dependency setuptools_scm uses git tags to craft version strings. I haven't looked into it too much though.

So if you do git tag 0.4 before you build the wheel, the wheel version will be 0.4. To have programmatic access to the version number (which is not the case in this PR), you could do the following

setup.py

from setuptools import setup

setup(use_scm_version=True)

pyproject.toml

...
[tool.setuptools_scm]
write_to = "umap/_version.py"

Which can then be used by e.g. CLI with

from umap._version import version
