(not op) One minor reason I'm considering stopping putting virtual envs inside the project is that not all tools I use support ignore files, and it's one extra thing to remember to ignore in each individual project. Putting venv/ in my .gitignore is one thing, but making sure grep, ag, tree, fzf, etc. all ignore it is an additional step. Granted, I believe some of those tools do respect .gitignore. I just don't see a benefit to having the virtualenv inside the project directory.
