Leo restart on Windows suffers from the same problem. If I start it with my
batch file that sets PYTHONPATH, it restarts the git/leo-editor version.
If instead I cd to git/leo-editor and start with py -m leo.core.runLeo,
then issue restart-leo, the pip-installed version gets started. So it's
the same problem on Windows. It's just easy to overlook. OTOH, if I start
Leo with the launchLeo.py script, the restart-leo command works as intended
(only tested on Linux so far). Very mysterious.

cd ~/git/leo-editor
python3 -m leo.core.runLeo
leads to restarting the pip-installed version instead of the git.leo-editor
version. I have found out the difference, though not yet why the difference
happens. When you start Leo in the git/leo-editor directory, you can
display the Python path be running this in Leo's console tab:
import sys
print('\n'.join(sys.path))
This will show that the first location on the search path is git/leo-editor,
as it should be.
When you restart it and the wrong version opens, the first location on my
system is git/leo-editor/leo/core. Of course, Python won't find
leo.core.runLeo there so it looks in site-packages instead and finds the
pip-installed version.
So, progress.

I have just confirmed that the restart-leo command does work on my OpenSUSE
VM. Leo is not being run in a venv on this one. I use the same launch
command as I posted above except it doesn't open a venv. This is with a
recent version of devel (yesterday's).

As you imply, restart-leo should "just work." However, there may be
platform-dependent limitations.
I will consider PRs that remove such limitations, but everything works for
me on Windows.
