A trusted replacement is :ref:`twine`:

* ``python -m twine check``
* ``python -m twine register``
* ``python -m twine upload``
* ``python -m twine check --strict dist/*``
* ``python -m twine register dist/*.whl`` [#not-pypi]_
* ``python -m twine upload dist/*``

* ``python -m setuptools-scm``
* ``python -m setuptools_scm``
