Description
I had a discussion with @brainwane about the confusing nature of the URL in this twine command
$ twine upload --repository-url https://test.pypi.org/legacy/ dist/* (https://packaging.python.org/guides/using-testpypi/#using-test-pypi)
To a beginner like myself, this appears like I'm uploading to the legacy pyPI infrastructure, but Sumana explained that is not the case.
Recommend removing "legacy" from the endpoint.
