Description
In the MANIFEST.IN I'm including from directory called build, setuptools automatically exclude this directory.
How to achieve the same behavior of python setup.py sdist --no-prune in setuptools to disable the standard “exclude” sets?
Thanks.

Research direction

Determine whether setuptools exposes an equivalent configuration or needs support for disabling its standard exclusions; done means the build directory is retained in the source distribution.
