If you alter the meta-data for a particular version, you can submit it again and the index will be updated.</p> <p>PyPI holds a record for each (name, version) combination submitted. The first user to submit information for a given name is designated the Owner of that name. Changes can be submitted through the <strong class="command">register</strong> command or through the web interface. Owners can designate other users as Owners or Maintainers. Maintainers can edit the package information, but not designate new Owners or Maintainers.</p> <p>By default PyPI displays only the newest version of a given package. The web interface lets one change this default behavior and manually select which versions to display and hide.</p> <p>For each version, PyPI displays a home page. The home page is created from the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">long_description</span></code> which can be submitted via the <strong class="command">register</strong> command.

Note that these will be uploaded even if they are built using an earlier invocation of <code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">setup.py</span></code>, but that only distributions named on the command line for the invocation including the <strong class="command">upload</strong> command are uploaded.</p> <p>If a <strong class="command">register</strong> command was previously called in the same command, and if the password was entered in the prompt, <strong class="command">upload</strong> will reuse the entered password. This is useful if you do not want to store a password in clear text in a <code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">.pypirc</span></code> file.</p> <p>You can use the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">--sign</span></code> option to tell <strong class="command">upload</strong> to sign each uploaded file using GPG (GNU Privacy Guard).
