Isn't there a lock file for that? I'm mostly a rust dev, but I thought I saw a lock file in a uv project I was vibe coding

The lockfile does more than just pin the versions of your immediate deps, so one might reset it for some other reason. Or you might want to update individual packages without caring about the specific commands for that, so you edit the package file, delete lockfile, reinstall.

  • But if I use uv sync and the package I want I don't ever need to toss the whole file right. In rust I'd never sign off on a mr that just randomly updated lots of deps with no reason tied to the issue they were resolving
