Uwe L. Korn commented on ARROW-379:
-----------------------------------

Pulling the source code from git instead of a tarball via HTTP in the pyarrow recipe might solve this issues as this should enable {{setuptools_scm}} to determine the version. Sadly you cannot determine a version from non-tagged git archives.

An extreme workaround is to set {{SETUPTOOLS_SCM_PRETEND_VERSION}} to force a version from the outside but that should really be the last resort.

> Instead of relying on a hardcoded string, it would be better to infer the version number from the SCM. This would get rid of the custom code in the release script (which I'm not sure if it is actually working) and also provide better (i.e. increasing) dev-versions.
