This is another stab at solving #204.

Adds a new --files-relative-to flag that can be used to tell pip-compile to
render paths relative to the given directory. In the interest of backwards
compatibility, the current behavior (rendering absolute paths using file:///)
remains unchanged by default.

The main idea here is the same as @orf's changes in #507. Given the current architecture of pip-tools' interactions with pip, it's difficult to maintain context of the original path that was provided in a requirements.in. What we can do relatively easily, however,
is change the logic for rendering file://-dependencies to write them relative to a given directory.

Current Behavior (Unchanged by Default)

#
# This file is autogenerated by pip-compile
# To update, run:
#
#    pip-compile --output-file tmp.txt dev-requirements.txt

Differences relative to #507:

Changelog-friendly one-liner: Added support for writing non-VCS directories using relative paths.

Contributor checklist
  • Provided the tests for the changes. (I haven't done this yet. Happy to do so if there's interest in this feature.)
  • Requested (or received) a review from another contributor
  • Gave a clear one-line description in the PR (that the maintainers can add to CHANGELOG.md afterwards).

Adds a new --files-relative-to flag that can be used to tell pip-compile to
render paths relative to the given directory. In the interest of backwards
compatibility, the current behavior (rendering absolute paths using `file:///`)
remains unchanged by default.
