Python package name normalization
CodeCatalyst normalizes package names before storing them, which means the package names in CodeCatalyst may be different than the name provided when the package was published.
For Python packages, when performing normalization the package name is lowercased and all instances of the characters
., -, and _ are
replaced with a single - character. So the package names pigeon_cli and
pigeon.cli are normalized and stored as pigeon-cli.
The non-normalized name can be used by pip and twine. For more information about Python package name normalization, see
PEP 503
