Pants

maybe someone asked this already, but let me try: how can python_sources() be recursive instead of adding one BUILD file in each subfolder?

```python_sources(sources=["**/*.py"])```
If you would like to ignore some other `.py` files then
```python_sources(sources=["**/*.py", "!ignore.py"])```

If you're interested in some other answers about this subject. Search slack for "1:1:1"

Thanks! <@U04TLDA963H> maybe this can help you

Also see <https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/issues/17614> for some caveats. (implemented by <https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/17649>)

notably, for this case, this would be more robust:
```python_sources(
    sources = [
        "**/" + default for default in
        python_sources.sources.default   
    ]
)```

(if you’re able to use a recent enough version of pants..)
