How to force Poetry to reinstall a Git dependency from a branch

I have a Poetry dependency pinned down as the following in pyproject.toml:

[tool.poetry.dependencies]
top-framework = { git = "https://github.com/tradingstrategy-ai/top-framework.git", rev = "master" }

Even if I push new commits to master branch on Github, poetry install won't reinstall the changes.

Solution

  • This is an ongoing issue with Poetry. Unfortunately, at the moment Poetry does not pick up changes inside Git branches.

    However you can force reinstall the package with pip after activating poetry shell. The force reinstall will always pick the latest changes from Git:

    pip install --force-reinstall --no-deps "git+https://github.com/tradingstrategy-ai/top-framework.git#master"
