On behalf of the PyPA, I am pleased to announce that the pip team has just released pip 24.2.

You can read more about our versioning, deprecation policy, and release process here.

Highlights

  • Many performance improvements to speed up to pip’s download and installation logic.
  • Use system certificates and certifi certificates to verify HTTPS connections on Python 3.10+.
  • Deprecate pip install --editable falling back to setup.py develop.
  • Ignore --require-virtualenv for pip check and pip freeze.

Please consult our changelog for more information.

Thanks

As with all pip releases, a significant amount of the work was contributed by pip’s user community. Many thanks to all who have contributed, whether through code, documentation, issue reports and/or discussion. Your help keeps pip improving, and is hugely appreciated.
