what are the advantages of using pipenv sync over pipenv install?
From looking at the docs, it looks like pipenv install
will install all dependencies from the pipfile, and update pipfile.lock with the versions it used. pipenv sync
will install the exact versions specified in pipfile.lock.
I would say sync
is better for getting your environment to match what is checked in, and install
is for when you want to get the latest versions, or are adding new dependencies that aren't in the lock file yet.
