v3.0.0 (2026-01-16)

Breaking

• Make most of args in version_from_git keyword-only.
• Change return type of version_from_git and infer_version from str to packaging.version.Version.
• Timestamps in version templates are now timezone-aware.

Refactoring

• Split setuptools_git_versioning.py into smaller set of files.
• Do not use Popen(shell=True) anymore.
• Switch from setup.py to pyproject.toml.
• Switch from pip to uv, use lock files.
• Switch from black + isort + pyupgrade to ruff format.
• Switch from flake8 to ruff.
• Switch from pre-commit to prek.

Bug Fixes

• Fix calling get_version(root=...) in combination with version-file strategy -
  relative file version was resolved against os.cwd, not explicitly passed root.
• Fix epoch versions like 0!2025.12.3 were wrongly converted to 0.2025.12.3 (#122).
• Using version_file-based schema with shallow git clone lead to version numbers like 1.2.3.postNone, now it is 1.2.3.post0 (#104).
