A rehash of closed issue #17.
In our CI build script, we use pip-compile to ensure python requirements consistency. Our requirements.in has -e git+ssh://github/... dependencies. As a result, pip-compile checks out the repositories and building up .cache/pip-tools:
build-xenial-01:/home/jenkins$ sudo du -h .cache/pip-tools
120M .cache/pip-tools/wheels
75G .cache/pip-tools/pkgs
75G .cache/pip-tools
which eventually fills up /home/. Please implement an option for not using cache or clearing cache.
@mlfz Clearing the cache is already possible:
pip-compile --rebuild
or
pip-compile -r
Thanks! My apology.
