Documented steps

  1. Pin exact versions inline, for example python -m pip install requests==2.32.3, or with a range such as requests>=2.31,<3.
  2. Apply global version ceilings with a constraints file via python -m pip install -c constraints.txt <package>.
  3. For highly repeatable installs add --require-hashes, which is implied automatically once a hash is present in the requirements file.
