$ cabal new-sdist some-vcs-package
cabal: The impossible happened: a local package isn't local

edit: here's the callstack:

CallStack (from HasCallStack):

We can probably fix this and #5586 at the same time.

You shouldn't be able to sdist VCS packages at all, this is really just a dup of #5586 since that's what makes it possible for this to even be stated.
