Consider the following scenario: 1) You have to format your pc. 2) You copy your python projects to your hard disk along with the virtual environment(I keep the virtual environment in the project folder only). 3)When you copy your projects back after successfully formatting your pc, the useless virtualenv lies there and you can't get the requirements.txt now and have to install all packages one by one.
It could be great if pip or python or anyone would by default store a requirements.txt file inside the virtual env and on `pip install xyz` would append `xyz` to that file. _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/ONN6YLH75MPA4OKGA5VJDL4SUMXPLR53/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
