Description
@bhrutledge That would be a good spot to document it. Also, maybe it should be documented in https://packaging.python.org/tutorials/packaging-projects/ if possible. If four people have reported it that I see, maybe others have tried to upload using twine and have been unable to do so.

The section to add this would be: https://packaging.python.org/tutorials/packaging-projects/#uploading-the-distribution-archives
Solution: https://github.com/pypa/twine/issues/671#issuecomment-675575517
(Or just add a reference to https://pypi.org/help/#invalid-auth)
