In the patch, I've added setup.cfg and release_notes.txt and attempted to remove unnecessary entries. Please feel free to go further.

I think I should restore push and pull.

V2 does this.

The new patch cleans up some build-related files. This "blocks" #8051.

I haven't decided yet what to do about release_notes.txt, so I haven't updated it. If we can auto-generate it, that would be great.

I have been using the script at the following site to generate release notes for Sage:

http://bitbucket.org/mvngu/rnotes/

I think an option could be added to that script to generate release notes for sagenb. The current usage for the script is

./generate_release_notes sage-x.y.z

A possible option for generating sagenb specific release notes is

./generate_release_notes sage-x.y.z -sagenb

This would generate a release note for all sagenb specific tickets closed in the Sage x.y.z milestone. It's possible that during a particular milestone, more than one version of sagenb is released and integrated into Sage. Another possibility is

./generate_release_notes sagenb-x.y.z

This would generate a release note for sagenb x.y.z.

Thanks! I'll definitely take a closer look (though not immediately). I assume we'll make it separate ticket so we don't hold up this one.

Looks good to me. Apply the attachment trac_7784-sagenb_spkg_files.patch to sagenb-0.7.2.spkg under the directory sagenb-0.7.2/src/sagenb.
