general open question about setting up a new repo: what is the recommended/easiest way to set up a new python repo and manage dependencies? for personal projects, i’ve been using a combo of

poetry new

and

pants init

with a bunch of added linter configurations added in, but it feels like there’s a bit of redundancy with a

default.lock

file and a

poetry.lock

file. i use poetry because it’s a little more opinionated when setting up a repo using

poetry new

, but mostly because it’s a lot easier to add and manage python dependencies using

poetry add

and

poetry remove

. does pants have a similar system to manage packages? is that something that’s in scope of what pants aims to be? 99% of the time, i just want to “add the latest version of this package that’s compatible with my existing dependencies”. something along the lines of

pants add [python?] [default_resolve | resolve] requests

Pants is slowly gaining these features.. see this ticket, and referenced issues/PRs of that: https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/issues/12880
