Ensure pip's release process automation works on Windows
See original GitHub issueGiven the recent automation added to our release process (see #2314 for details), I know that it’ll work on MacOS (and, likely Linux) systems because I’ve tested that. I expect that it works on Windows, but I’ve not been able to test that.
It’d be great if someone could try it out on Windows, to make sure things work as expected there as well. This is basically someone running the prepare-release
and build-release
nox commands, to make sure they work well on Windows.
I’ve assigned folks that I know run Windows machine and informally agreed to try this when they’d find time to tackle this. If a new contributor wants to try this out, please go through step 1-4 here: https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/development/release-process/#creating-a-new-release

@pradyunsg We only care about Python 3 for the release script, right? I’ve filed #7600 for the line ending thing, but there are some… complications on Python 2.
#7598 created for the version file issue. It’s failing on MacOS, which I assume is not the fault of the PR, as we don’t have tests for the automation scripts. I’ll try to look at the failures later on or maybe tomorrow,
