How can I upload both zip and targz distributions to PyPI?

I can upload my package to PyPI using the following command:

python setup.py sdist upload

This would create a .zip file (because I'm on Windows).

However I'd like to have both .zip and .targz files in PyPI, to easily support both Windows and Linux users.

How can I (preferably with one command) build both kinds of distributions and upload them to PyPI?

The container format .zip and .tar.gz should be handled the same on both systems.

The documentation doesn't specify that there is a specific archive format, so I'd assume you don't need to worry.

Distribution Package

A versioned archive file that contains Python packages, modules, and other resource files that are used to distribute a Release. The archive file is what an end-user will download from the internet and install.
