Pip: how to install a git pull request

To install a specific pull request (PR) from a Git repository using pip, you can add the URL of the PR's branch to your requirements.txt file or directly use the -e flag with pip. Here's how you can do it:

Method 1: Add PR URL to requirements.txt

  • In your requirements.txt file, add the URL of the Git repository with the pull request reference.
https://github.com/username/repository-name.git@pull/123
  • Replace username with the username of the repository owner.
  • Replace repository-name with the name of the repository.
  • Replace 123 with the pull request number you want to install.
  • Run pip install -r requirements.txt to install the dependencies, including the specific pull request.

Method 2: Use the -e Flag with pip

  • Run the following command, replacing the URL with the Git repository URL and pull request reference:
pip install -e git+https://github.com/username/repository-name.git@pull/123#egg=my_package
  • Replace username with the username of the repository owner.
  • Replace repository-name with the name of the repository.
  • Replace 123 with the pull request number you want to install.
  • You can also specify the #egg=my_package part to give a custom name to the package being installed.

This will install the specific pull request as an editable package.

Please note that not all repositories and pull requests are structured in a way that makes them directly installable with pip. Additionally, ensure that you have the necessary permissions to access the repository and its pull requests when using these methods.
