+Subject: [PATCH] setup.py: allow all recent 2.x requests releases
+
+Instead of having to update this for each new requests release.
+
+It it not quite clear why the restriction was added in the first place in
+commit b0480b4d04e (Bump SDK version to latest), but change it to simply
+disallow the upcoming 3.0 release to match what is done for the other
+modules.
+
+Submitted upstream: https://github.com/docker/compose/pull/6415
