What is the standard way to embed a version into a Python package?

There is no one standard way to embed a version into a Python package. However, many Python developers follow the convention of using a version control system, such as Git, and tagging each release with a version number. This allows developers to easily track and rollback to previous versions, if necessary. Other developers may choose to hard-code version numbers into their source code, which can be helpful if the package will be distributed without a version control system.
