Deprecations and Removals
- Deprecate
pip install --editable
falling back tosetup.py develop
when using a setuptools version that does not support :pep:660
(setuptools v63 and older). ([#11457](https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/11457) <https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/11457>
_)Features
Check unsupported packages for the current platform. (
[#11054](https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/11054) <https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/11054>
_)Use system certificates and certifi certificates to verify HTTPS connections on Python 3.10+. Python 3.9 and earlier only use certifi.
To revert to previous behaviour, pass the flag
--use-deprecated=legacy-certs
. ([#11647](https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/11647) <https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/11647>
_)Improve discovery performance of installed packages when the
importlib.metadata
backend is used to load distribution metadata (used by default under Python 3.11+). ([#12656](https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12656) <https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12656>
_)Improve performance when the same requirement string appears many times during resolution, by consistently caching the parsed requirement string. (
[#12663](https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12663) <https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12663>
_)Minor performance improvement of finding applicable package candidates by not repeatedly calculating their versions (
[#12664](https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12664) <https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12664>
_)Disable pip's self version check when invoking a pip subprocess to install PEP 517 build requirements. (
[#12683](https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12683) <https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12683>
_)Improve dependency resolution performance by caching platform compatibility tags during wheel cache lookup. (
[#12712](https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12712) <https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12712>
_)
wheel
is no longer explicitly listed as a build dependency ofpip
.setuptools
injects this dependency in theget_requires_for_build_wheel()
hook and no longer needs it on newer versions. ([#12728](https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12728) <https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12728>
_)Ignore
--require-virtualenv
forpip check
andpip freeze
([#12842](https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12842) <https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12842>
_)Improve package download and install performance.
Increase chunk sizes when downloading (256 kB, up from 10 kB) and reading files (1 MB, up from 8 kB). This reduces the frequency of updates to pip's progress bar. (
[#12810](https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12810) <https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12810>
_)Improve pip install performance.
Files are now extracted in 1MB blocks, or in one block matching the file size for smaller files. A decompressor is no longer instantiated when extracting 0 bytes files, it is not necessary because there is no data to decompress. (
[#12803](https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12803) <https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12803>
_)Bug Fixes
- Set
no_color
to globalrich.Console
instance. ([#11045](https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/11045) <https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/11045>
_)- Fix resolution to respect
--python-version
when checkingRequires-Python
. ([#12216](https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12216) <https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12216>
_)- Perform hash comparisons in a case-insensitive manner. (
[#12680](https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12680) <https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12680>
_)- Avoid
dlopen
failure for glibc detection in musl builds ([#12716](https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12716) <https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12716>
_)- Avoid keyring logging crashes when pip is run in verbose mode. (
[#12751](https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12751) <https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/12751>
