- Error: The generated source distribution's identity is not correct
- ##################################################################
-
- When ``dds`` attempts to automatically generate a source distribution,
- especially when generating from a remote that was acquired using a catalog
- listing, ``dds`` expects the generated source distribution to have a matching
- package identity to match what was intended.
-
- This can happen if a catalog listing's package version does not match the
- source of the remote acquisition method. For example, if using ``git`` to clone
- a repository, the ``git-ref`` used to clone must match the package version of
- the listing. If the ``git-ref`` is a branch, it is possible that additional
- changes were pushed into the branch that changed the package version, thus
- invalidating the package. [#f1]_
-
- .. [#f1]
- For this reason, it is **highly recommended** to use Git *tags* to
- refer to remote packages *instead of branches*.
