I'm developing a django app and I'm using pip to manage my requirements. How can I do to install a specific git's commit?
In my case I need to install this commit: https://github.com/aladagemre/django-notification/commit/2927346f4c513a217ac8ad076e494dd1adbf70e1
You can specify commit hash, branch name, tag.
For the branch name and the tag, you can also install a compressed distribution. This is faster and more efficient, as it does not require cloning the entire repository. GitHub creates those bundles automatically.
hash:
$ pip install git+https://github.com/aladagemre/django-notification.git@2927346f4c513a217ac8ad076e494dd1adbf70e1
branch-name
With git
$ pip install git+https://github.com/aladagemre/django-notification.git@cool-feature-branch
or from source bundle
$ pip install https://github.com/aladagemre/django-notification/archive/cool-feature-branch.tar.gz
tag
with git
$ pip install git+https://github.com/aladagemre/[email protected]
or from source bundle
$ pip install https://github.com/aladagemre/django-notification/archive/v2.1.0.tar.gz
It is a not well-documented feature, but you can find more information at https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/topics/vcs-support/
Could not find a tag or branch '2927346f4c513a217ac8ad076e494dd1adbf70e1', assuming commit.
git+ command: pip install git+https://github.com/gpoore/codebraid@011464539bfb09b8611c8aef0d543532cea958bf. It may be important for people behind corporate http proxies.
It's possible to automatically install a python package using the requirements.txt file on you project just by adding the following line:
package-name -e git+https://github.com/owner/repository.git@branch_or_commit#egg={package-name}
and run the command line:
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -r requirements.txt raised 'Could not detect requirement name, please specify one with #egg='. But it worked with the format '-e git+github.com/owner/repository.git#egg=branch_or_commit'
package -e url syntax was not working for me. I'm guessing this was meant to signify an editable build but, well, it was not installing from Github when I tried this. Merely specifying the actual git+https://github.com/... URL like in the accepted answer worked for me with pip 19.2.3 on Python 3.8.2
package-name -e url syntax was harmful for me on Py3.10. it silently ignored the url I provided, and installed package-name latest PyPi version. what worked for me instead was to omit package name entirely, à la -e git+https://github.com/EleutherAI/lm-evaluation-harness.git@568af943e315100af3f00937bfd6947844769ab8#egg=lm_evalAn extra comment to @hugo-tavares's answer:
If it's a private GitHub repository, you'll need to use:
pip install git+ssh://[email protected]/....
In your case:
pip install git+ssh://[email protected]/aladagemre/django-notification.git@2927346f4c513a217ac8ad076e494dd1adbf70e1
If you want to create an egg package, you can still use the same @branch_or_commit appendage: pip install git+ssh://[email protected]/myrepo.git@mybranch#egg=myeggscript
