Two features I miss from pip-tools:
1. `pip-sync`, An easy way to ensure my local environment actually matches my defined requirements. I guess the pipenv version of this would be `pipenv uninstall --all && pipenv install` which isn't quite as elegant, but perhaps good enough.
2. The ability to create more than two requirement sets. For my projects it's often handy to three sets of requirements:
• Normal production requirements end users will need to run the app
• CI requirements needed for testing, but not running the app in production (Selenium, Flake8, etc)
• Local debugging tools (ipython, ipdb)
I could include my local debugging tools in the `--dev` requirements, but then I'm unnecessarily making my CI builds slower by adding requirements for packages that should never actually be referenced in committed code. Alternatively, I could leave them out of my dependencies entirely, but then I have to remember to reinstall them every time I sync my local env to ensure it matches the piplock file.
- cmcginty 9y agopip-compile --upgrade pip-compile --upgrade-package are also necessary features to quickly track your dependencies (and transitive deps). pipenv uses pip-tools, but they haven't exposed these features as far as I can tell.
