RuntimeError: Cannot parse version 0+untagged

Describe the issue:

Build fails on macOS Monterey 12.3.1 / python 3.10.4 / pip 22.1, not sure whether it’s a numpy or pip issue though.

Reproduce the code example:

git clone https://github.com/numpy/numpy
pip install numpy/

Error message:

% pip install numpy/
Processing ./numpy
  Installing build dependencies ... done
  Getting requirements to build wheel ... error
  error: subprocess-exited-with-error
  
  × Getting requirements to build wheel did not run successfully.

I initially cloned the repo with --depth 1

👍 Ah, you didn’t say that 😃 Yes, that will do it.

I just found out what’s wrong. I initially cloned the repo with --depth 1 which for some reason result in the error. The problem was gone and I was able to build the wheel successfully by cloning without the --depth flag. I’m closing the issue. If this behavior is unexpected, feel free to re-open it.
