The uv build backend has gone through some feedback cycles, we expect no
more major configuration changes, and we're ready to take the next step:
The uv build backend in stable.
This PR stabilizes:
* Using `uv_build` as build backend
* The documentation of the uv build backend
* The direct build fast path, where uv doesn't use PEP 517 if you're
using `uv_build` in a compatible version.
* `uv build --list`, which is limited to `uv_build`.
It does not:
* Make `uv_build` the default on `uv init`
* Make `--package` the default on `uv init`
## Summary
If we fail to acquire a lock on an environment, uv shouldn't fail; we
should just warn. In some cases, users run uv with read-only permissions
for their projects, etc.
For now, I kept any locks acquired _in the cache_ as hard failures,
since we always need write-access to the cache.
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/14411.
## Summary
The idea here is that if a user runs `uv pip compile --universal`, we
should ignore the patch version on the current interpreter. I think this
makes sense... `--universal` tries to resolve for all future versions,
so it seems a bit odd that we'd start at the _current_ patch version.
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/14397.
Clap does not perform global validation, so flag that are declared as
overriding can be set at the same time:
https://github.com/clap-rs/clap/issues/6049. This would previously cause
a panic. We work around this by choosing the yes-value always and
writing a warning.
An alternative would be erroring when both are set, but it's unclear to
me if this may break things we want to support. (`UV_OFFLINE=1 cargo run
-q pip --no-offline install tqdm --no-cache` is already banned).
Fixes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/pull/14299
**Test Plan**

× No solution found when resolving dependencies:

```
The marker display code assumes that all versions are normalized, in
that all trailing zeroes are stripped. This is not the case for
tilde-equals and equals-star versions, where the trailing zeroes (before
the `.*`) are semantically relevant. This would cause path
dependent-behavior where we would get a different marker string
depending on whether a version with or without a trailing zero was added
to the cache first.
To handle both equals-star and tilde-equals when converting
`python_version` to `python_full_version` markers, we have to merge the
version normalization (i.e. trimming the trailing zeroes) and the
conversion both to `python_full_version` and to `Ranges`, while special
casing equals-star and tilde-equals.
To avoid churn in lockfiles, we only trim in the conversion to `Ranges`
for markers, but keep using untrimmed versions for requires-python.
(Note that this behavior is technically also path dependent, as versions
with and without trailing zeroes have the same Hash and Eq. E.q.,
`requires-python == ">= 3.10.0"` and `requires-python == ">= 3.10"` in
the same workspace could lead to either value in `uv.lock`, and which
one it is could change if we make unrelated (performance) changes.
Always trimming however definitely changes lockfiles, a churn I wouldn't
do outside another breaking or lockfile-changing change.) Nevertheless,
there is a change for users who have `requires-python = "~= 3.12.0"` in
their `pyproject.toml`, as this now hits the correct normalization path.

## Summary
There's a good example of the downside of using verbatim URLs here:
https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/pull/14197#discussion_r2163599625 (we
show two relative paths that point to the same directory, but it's not
clear from the error message).
The diff:
```
2 2 │ ----- stdout -----
3 3 │
4 4 │ ----- stderr -----
5 5 │ error: Requirements contain conflicting URLs for package `library` in all marker environments:
6 │-- ../../library
7 │-- ./library
6 │+- file://[TEMP_DIR]/library
7 │+- file://[TEMP_DIR]/library (editable)
```
and prefer emulated x64 windows in its stead.
This is preparatory work for shipping support for uv downloading and
installing aarch64 (arm64) windows Pythons. We've [had builds for this
platform ready for a
while](https://github.com/astral-sh/python-build-standalone/pull/387),
but have held back on shipping them due to a fundamental problem:
**The Python packaging ecosystem does not have strong support for
aarch64 windows**, e.g., not many projects build aarch64 wheels yet. The
net effect of this is that, if we handed you an aarch64 python
interpreter on windows, you would have to build a lot more sdists, and
there's a high chance you will simply fail to build that sdist and be
sad.
Yes unfortunately, in this case a non-native Python interpreter simply
*works better* than the native one... in terms of working at all, today.
Of course, if the native interpreter works for your project, it should
presumably have better performance and platform compatibility.
We do not want to stand in the way of progress, as ideally this
situation is a temporary state of affairs as the ecosystem grows to
support aarch64 windows. To enable progress, on aarch64 Windows builds
of uv:
* We will still use a native python interpreter, e.g., if it's at the
front of your `PATH` or the only installed version.
* If we are choosing between equally good interpreters that differ in
architecture, x64 will be preferred.
* If the aarch64 version is newer, we will prefer the aarch64 one.
* We will emit a diagnostic on installation, and show the python request
to pass to uv to force aarch64 windows to be used.
* Will be shipping [aarch64 Windows Python
downloads](https://github.com/astral-sh/python-build-standalone/pull/387)
* Will probably add some kind of global override setting/env-var to
disable this behaviour.
* Will be shipping this behaviour in
[astral-sh/setup-uv](https://github.com/astral-sh/setup-uv)
We're coordinating with Microsoft, GitHub (for the `setup-python`
action), and the CPython team (for the `python.org` installers), to
ensure we're aligned on this default and the timing of toggling to
prefer native distributions in the future.

## Summary
In #14245, we started normalizing index URLs by dropping the trailing
slash in the lockfile. We added tests to ensure that this didn't cause
existing lockfiles to be invalidated, but we missed one of the
constructors (specifically, the path that's used with
`tool.uv.sources`).
Close#7426
## Summary
Picking up on #8284, I noticed that the `requires_python` object already
has its specifiers canonicalized in the `intersection` method, meaning
`~=3.12` is converted to `>=3.12, <4`. To fix this, we check and warn in
`intersection`.
## Test Plan
Used the same tests from #8284.
## Summary
When the user provides a requirement like `==2.4.*`, we desugar that to
`>=2.4.dev0,<2.5.dev0`. These bounds then appear in error messages, and
worse, they also trick the error message reporter into thinking that the
user asked for a pre-release.
This PR adds logic to convert to the more-concise `==2.4.*`
representation when possible. We could probably do a similar thing for
the compatible release operator (`~=`).
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/14177.

Python `bin` installations installed with `uv python install --default
--preview` (no version specified) were not being installed as
upgradeable. Instead each link was pointed at the highest patch version
for a minor version. This change ensures that these preview default
installations are also treated as upgradeable.
The PR includes some updates to the related tests. First, it checks the
default install without specified version case. Second, since it's
adding more read link checks, it creates a new `read_link` helper method
to consolidate repeated logic and replace instances of
`#[cfg(unix/windows)` with `if cfg!(unix/windows)`.
Fixes#14247
This PR updates `IndexUrl` parsing to normalize non-file URLs by
removing trailing slashes. It also normalizes registry source URLs when
using them to validate the lockfile.
Prior to this change, when writing an index URL to the lockfile, uv
would use a trailing slash if present in the provided URL and no
trailing slash otherwise. This can cause surprising behavior. For
example, `uv lock --locked` will fail when a package is added with an
`--index` value without a trailing slash and then `uv lock --locked` is
run with a `pyproject.toml` version of the index URL that contains a
trailing slash. This PR fixes this and adds a test for the scenario.
It might be safe to normalize file URLs in the same way, but since
slashes have a well-defined meaning in the context of files and
directories, I chose not to normalize them here.
Closes#13707.
uv currently ignores URL-encoded credentials in a redirect location.
This PR adds a check for these credentials to the redirect handling
logic. If found, they are moved to the Authorization header in the
redirect request.
Closes#11097
Previously we were using the XDG data dir to avoid symlinks, but there's no
particular guarantee that that's not going to be a symlink too. Using the
canonicalized temp dir by default is also slightly nicer for a couple reasons:
It's sometimes faster (an in-memory tempfs on e.g. Arch), and it makes
overriding `$TMPDIR` or `%TMP%` sufficient to control where tests put temp
files, without needing to override `UV_INTERNAL__TEST_DIR` too.
There was a regression introduced in #13954 on Windows where creating a
venv behaved as if there was a minor version link even if none existed.
This PR adds a check to fix this.
Closes#14249.
We do not currently support passing index names to `--index` for
installing packages. However, we do accept relative paths that can look
like index names. This PR adds the requirement that `--index` values
must be disambiguated with a prefix (`./` or `../` on Unix and Windows
or `.\\` or `..\\` on Windows). For now, if an ambiguous value is
provided, uv will warn that this will not be supported in the future.
Currently, if you provide an index name like `--index test` when there
is no `test` directory, uv will error with a `Directory not found...`
error. That's not very informative if you thought index names were
supported. The new warning makes the context clearer.
Closes#13921
In workspaces with multiple packages, you usually don't want to include
shared files such as the license repeatedly. Instead, we reading from
symlinked files. This would be supported if we had used std's `is_file`
and read methods, but walkdir's `is_file` does not consider symlinked
files as files.

@oconnor663 discovered that executing `3.10.8` on Arch Linux ran into an
error loading `libcrypt.so.1`. This caused uv to install the latest
patch version on `uv venv` operations during upgrade tests, which
undermined their purpose (since they are checking that if you first
install `3.10.8` and then upgrade, virtual environments are
transparently upgraded). This PR updates the test to use `3.10.17`
instead to avoid this issue.
#13954 introduced an unnecessary slow-down to Python uninstall by
calling `installations.find_all()` to discover remaining installations
after an uninstall. Instead, we can filter all initial installations
against those in `uninstalled`.
As part of this change, I've updated `uninstalled` from a `Vec` to an
`IndexSet` in order to do efficient lookups in the filter. This required
a change I call out below to how we were retrieving them for messaging.
