as much as I'd like this to just work, certain versions of pip just don't support it -_- see: ansible#7107 see: pypa/pip#7555 so unfortunately, we just have to track these as two distinct files and just keep them in sync

Note: i heard of another issue about this, but i couldn't find it. please link them together if you know the issue.
ISSUE TYPE
SUMMARY
pipdoes not honor symlinks in local clones. It got merged three weeks ago and they're going to have to revert it: pypa/pip#7555The issue has been somewhat existent since 2016: pypa/pip#3500
Current workaround is rm awx/awxkit/VERSION and cp awx/VERSION awx/awxkit/VERSION.
This issue should be about either acknowledging the pip issue and monitoring it via this repo, or making the VERSION file not a symlink.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
run
pip install awx/awxkit.EXPECTED RESULTS
Install succeeds.
ACTUAL RESULTS
VERSION file isn't found, failure occurs.
