  --- BEGIN ISSUE ---
  redis-py version attribute should be decoupled from the redis module
  Following the conversation from https://github.com/redis/redis-py/issues/1625#issuecomment-991744836 looks like importing `redis` module prior to installation in `setup.py` for `version` attribute is not ideal.
  
  Currently there are two places where module version is required.
  - `setup.py` for module installation
  - `redis/__init__.py` for module level `__version__` attribute
  
  One way to fix this is to maintain a `version.py` file in top level directory and using that as source of truth in both the above places. 
  
  @chayim @hartwork What do you think? I can create a PR for this :)
