This is part of why we put the release notes document build separate from the main documentation build (the other reason being so we could link to something without "developer" in the URL). The plan is to build setuptools integration into reno so that when we build our sdists they include a cache file of the data that reno derives from the git history, so that without git present reno can use the cache file instead of the git history. That work hasn't been done yet, because it has not yet been the highest priority task related to all of the release automation changes we're implementing, because as I stated above it shouldn't be necessary to build packages (including documentation) for projects. If we don't get to it by the end of Mitaka, it will happen early in Newton.
