Purpose

Keep dependency diffs clean and intentional in uv-driven repos.

When To Use

• git diff shows uv.lock changes you did not expect.
• git diff also shows src/*.egg-info/** changes after uv pip install -e . / uv run ....

Procedure

• Identify why uv.lock changed:
  • Check whether pyproject.toml dependency constraints changed.
  • Re-run the intended install step (usually uv sync --dev) and confirm the lock diff is stable.
• Decide what to commit:
  • Commit uv.lock only when the dependency change is intentional (new/updated dependency, resolver behavior change, platform marker update).
  • Treat src/*.egg-info/ as generated metadata; do not commit by default.
• If src/*.egg-info/ is untracked noise:
  • Prefer ignoring it via .gitignore (src/*.egg-info/) rather than committing.
• If src/*.egg-info/ is already tracked:
  • Only commit it when doing explicit packaging/version metadata work; otherwise keep it out of feature commits.

Notes

• uv.lock is the dependency source of truth; src/*.egg-info/ is typically a local artifact of editable installs.<!-- END:compound:skill-managed -->
