Failing to point to project's root

[doronz88]

When trying to build my project I'm getting: LookupError: setuptools-scm was unable to detect version for ....
After googline I arrived at the following issue: #278 seeing I'm encountering the same problem - when my pyproject.toml resides in a subdirectory:

PROJECT ROOT
└── src
    ├── rpcclient <- this is where I'm trying to build
    │   ├── pyproject.toml 

I tried adding root = "../../" at tool.setuptools_scm, but then encountered another error:

ValueError: invalid pyproject.toml config: data.project.version.
configuration error:

I guess the solution to pyproject.toml projects is somewhat different

I found the cause. I forgot to remove the version specification line before applying dynamic versioning.
