Heh.  I wrote check-manifest because relying on setuptools's handling of
VCS was an unacceptable bug magnet to me.

(New svn working tree format _or_ you forget to install setuptools-git
on this one machine?  No error, just a broken sdist.)

BTW if you use zest.releaser, check-manifest plugs into it and stops the
release (well, asks if you REALLY want to continue, defaulting to "No")
if your MANIFEST.in doesn't match your VCS.
