Hey everybody. I just merged the MR that converts my team's smallish monorepo to use Pants. We had a number of (python code) docker containers that were all sort of grouped into one "module/application". Then when our team started working on a second set of containers as another module/application, I started to feel like our repo was getting unwieldy. I researched some tooling, came across Pants, and built up a prototype. I was able to reach feature parity with our old system (adhoc scripting whatever we needed), so now we use Pants. We've still got plenty of space to make incremental improvements to CI runtime, repo organization, etc. but we're already seeing lots of benefits in our docker image sizes (thanks to dependency inference instead of copying heavy-handed globs of source code and dependencies). Just wanted to say a big thank you to the community for answering lots of questions and helping me get over the hurdle of initial adoption. In particular, really wanted to call out @better-van-82973, @broad-processor-92400, and @wide-midnight-78598 for how helpful they were. Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback! Glad you were able to get this working.

@happy-kitchen-89482 That sounds intriguing! I'll have a think on it
