Pants was installed successfully!

For me, I install it using

pipx

(on M1 as well as Intels).

@average-exabyte-61568 if you change just the URL in your command line to https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pantsbuild/scie-pants/main/get-pants.sh that might work for you. The get-pants script uses scie-pants which is a new native self-contained launcher that uses a hermetic interpreter for M1.
