+This directory vendors the `pluggy` module.
+
+For a more detailed discussion for the reasons to vendoring this
+package, please see [this issue](https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/944).
+
+To update the current version, execute:
+
+```
+$ pip install -U pluggy==<version> --no-compile --target=_pytest/vendored_packages
+```
+
+And commit the modified files. The `pluggy-<version>.dist-info` directory
+created by `pip` should be added as well.
