Well, they do explicitly list certain historical features that they don't intend to support, like installation from eggs or editable installs. So they're doing some work to trim the pile while they're there.
- SonOfLilit 3y agoThey do support editable installs, but only from local directories. So you have to perform git clone yourself and then install.
- charliermarsh 3y agoWe do actually support direct installation of Git and direct URL dependencies. Like, you can do run `uv pip install` with: ``` black @ git+https://github.com/psf/black https://github.com/psf/black ``` We also support editable installs for local directories, like you mentioned: ``` black @ ../black ``` The thing we don't support is using _editable_ installs for Git and direct URL dependencies, like: ``` -e git+https://github.com/psf/black https://github.com/psf/black ``` In my experience, these are really rare, and we didn't see a reason to support them.
- fwip 3y agoThanks for the correction, both of you. :)
