Don't need metadata for rst files

Closed this issue 9 years ago · 3 comments

The project currently uses two readme files, a README.md and a README.rst. We dont need both.
To allow the project description to be displayed in the pypi project page, we would only need one of them. If we use, README.md we need to add it to [metadata] in setup.cfg, but if we use ReST, we wouldn't need any [metadata].

You still have two readme files.

Just add README.rst to .gitignore

I think that a better option would be to use README.rst and remove README.md. If you prefer Markdown, just delete README.rst and insert a [metadata] line.
