New issue 193: Remove the --pre pip option by default https://bitbucket.org/hpk42/tox/issue/193/remove-the-pre-pip-option-by-default
Dario Bertini: This can [break some builds](http://nedbatchelder.com/blog/201409/how_should_i_distribute_coveragepy_alphas.html#commentform) I looked at the Changelog for when this change was introduced, and apparently pip would refuse to install the exactly specified prerelease dependencies unless the `--pre` flag was supplied ``` #!text Also the default [py25] environment modifies the default installer_command (new config option) to use pip without the "--pre" which was introduced with pip-1.4 and is required if you want to install non-stable releases. (tox defaults to install with "--pre" otherwise). ``` This is understandable, but apparently it's not the case anymore, since if you run `pip install coverage==4.0a1` it will install the package without making a fuss I don't know when pip changed its behavior, but it'd be nice to take it into account now _______________________________________________ pytest-commit mailing list pytest-commit@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pytest-commit
