## Summary
Current documentation incorrectly suggests that the macOS cache
directory location is `$HOME/Library/Caches/uv`, but that changed in:
- #5806
Updates docs to say this instead:
> <p>Defaults to <code>$HOME/.cache/uv</code> on macOS,
<code>$XDG_CACHE_HOME/uv</code> or <code>$HOME/.cache/uv</code> on
Linux, and <code>%LOCALAPPDATA%\uv\cache</code> on Windows. The <code>uv
cache dir</code> command will show the location of the cache
directory.</p>

## Summary
Going forward, we're going to provide better versioning guarantees
around using the same cache across multiple uv versions, so this PR
updates the docs to reflect that. It also bumps the `sdists-` version to
fix the inconvenience demonstrated in
https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/8367.
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/8367.
When building a source distribution to a wheels, we perform the build
inside a temporary directory inside the output directory. By default,
the output directory is `dist/` in the repository root. This temp dir
placement allows us to move the final wheel to the output directory
instead of copying it (a temp dir might be on another device, which
means we need to copy instead of moving).
Some build backends such as hatchling traverse upwards from the current
directory (the source dist build location) looking for gitignore files
to consider. By adding a gitignore in `dist/` with `*`, we caused
hatchling to ignore all files in our temporary build directory below it,
causing empty wheels. To prevent this, we add a `.git` file as a phony
git root. We are already using this trick successfully in the cache.
Hatchling sees this `.git` file, considers it a boundary and does not
traverse up to `dist/.gitignore`.

## Summary
This PR declares and documents all environment variables that are used
in one way or another in `uv`, either internally, or externally, or
transitively under a common struct.
I think over time as uv has grown there's been many environment
variables introduced. Its harder to know which ones exists, which ones
are missing, what they're used for, or where are they used across the
code. The docs only documents a handful of them, for others you'd have
to dive into the code and inspect across crates to know which crates
they're used on or where they're relevant.
This PR is a starting attempt to unify them, make it easier to discover
which ones we have, and maybe unlock future posibilities in automating
generating documentation for them.
I think we can split out into multiple structs later to better organize,
but given the high influx of PR's and possibly new environment variables
introduced/re-used, it would be hard to try to organize them all now
into their proper namespaced struct while this is all happening given
merge conflicts and/or keeping up to date.
I don't think this has any impact on performance as they all should
still be inlined, although it may affect local build times on changes to
the environment vars as more crates would likely need a rebuild. Lastly,
some of them are declared but not used in the code, for example those in
`build.rs`. I left them declared because I still think it's useful to at
least have a reference.
Did I miss any? Are their initial docs cohesive?
Note, `uv-static` is a terrible name for a new crate, thoughts? Others
considered `uv-vars`, `uv-consts`.
## Test Plan
Existing tests
As per
https://matklad.github.io/2021/02/27/delete-cargo-integration-tests.html
Before that, there were 91 separate integration tests binary.
(As discussed on Discord — I've done the `uv` crate, there's still a few
more commits coming before this is mergeable, and I want to see how it
performs in CI and locally).
## Summary
Random, but I noticed that we can remove a ton of serialize and
deserialize derives by using `rkyv` for the flat-index caches. (We
already use `rkyv` for these same structs in the registry cache.)
## Summary
`uv cache prune --ci` will remove the source distribution directory. If
we then need to build a _different_ wheel (e.g., you're building a
package that has Python minor version-specific wheels), we fail, because
we expect the source to be there.
Now, if the source is missing, we re-download it. It would be slightly
easier to just _ignore_ that revision, but that would mean we'd also
lose the already-built wheels -- so if you ran against many Python
versions, we'd continuously lose the cached data.
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/7543.
## Test Plan
We can add tests, but they _need_ to build non-pure Python wheels, which
tends to be expensive...
For reference:
```console
$ cargo run venv --python 3.12
$ cargo run pip install mercurial==6.8.1 --verbose
$ cargo run cache prune --ci
$ cargo run venv --python 3.11
$ cargo run pip install mercurial==6.8.1 --verbose
```
I also did this with a local `.tar.gz` that I downloaded from PyPI.
## Summary
Both of these can contain rkyv data in their HTTP cache envelopes. As
such, the entries aren't readable by earlier versions of uv, and `uv
cache prune` can break. I should make `uv cache prune` robust to this,
but this feels safest.
Recently, rkyv 0.8 was released. Its API is a fair bit simpler now for
higher level uses (like for us in `uv`) and results in us being able to
delete a fair bit of code. This also removes our last dependency on `syn
1.0`, and thus drops that dependency.
Performance (via testing on the `transformers` example) seems to remain
about the same, which is what was expected:
```
$ hyperfine -w5 -r100 'uv lock' 'uv-ag-rkyv-update lock'
Benchmark 1: uv lock
Time (mean ± σ): 55.6 ms ± 6.4 ms [User: 30.4 ms, System: 35.1 ms]
Range (min … max): 43.0 ms … 73.1 ms 100 runs
Benchmark 2: uv-ag-rkyv-update lock
Time (mean ± σ): 56.5 ms ± 7.2 ms [User: 30.5 ms, System: 36.3 ms]
Range (min … max): 39.1 ms … 71.5 ms 100 runs
Summary
uv lock ran
1.02 ± 0.18 times faster than uv-ag-rkyv-update lock
```
Closes#7415
## Summary
It's very unlikely that retaining these is beneficial, since you tend to
partition the cache by platform anyway.
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/7394.
## Summary
This PR adds a more flexible cache invalidation abstraction for uv, and
uses that new abstraction to improve support for dynamic metadata.
Specifically, instead of relying solely on a timestamp, we now pass
around a `CacheInfo` struct which (as of now) contains
`Option<Timestamp>` and `Option<Commit>`. The `CacheInfo` is saved in
`dist-info` as `uv_cache.json`, so we can test already-installed
distributions for cache validity (along with testing _cached_
distributions for cache validity).
Beyond the defaults (`pyproject.toml`, `setup.py`, and `setup.cfg`
changes), users can also specify additional cache keys, and it's easy
for us to extend support in the future. Right now, cache keys can either
be instructions to include the current commit (for `setuptools_scm` and
similar) or file paths (for `hatch-requirements-txt` and similar):
```toml
[tool.uv]
cache-keys = [{ file = "requirements.txt" }, { git = true }]
```
This change should be fully backwards compatible.
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/6964.
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/6255.
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/6860.
## Summary
This has bothered me for a while and should be fairly impactful for
users. It requires a weird implementation, since the
distribution-building crate depends on the cache, and so the prune
operation can't live in the cache, since it needs to access internals of
the distribution-building crate.
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/7096.
As suggested by @samypr100 on #6680:

## Summary
Instead of using `UV_INTERNAL__TEST_DIR`, it simply exports `TEMP` when
running Windows jobs.
## Test Plan
I'm going to run this manually under ProcMon on my Windows machine and
see where uv writes temp files, hopefully to the dev drive and not
`%(LOCAL)APPDATA%` or something.
I'm going to commit a dummy code change and look at build time changes
in CI.
## Summary
This PR makes `cargo test | windows` faster in CI.
### Before

### After

## Also
This PR disables the `brotli` feature of `async-compression` since it's
not strictly needed, but this has little to do with the improvements
(it's still less code to build).
This PR introduces additional code in uv tool uninstall to ignore errors
(that only seem to happen on ReFS, ie. on Dev Drives) akin to "the thing
we're trying to delete cannot be deleted because it's already being
deleted".
If `raw_os_error` was stable we could do u32 matching instead of that
`.to_string().contains()` abomination.
## Summary
We accidentally changed the Windows cache directory from
`C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\uv\cache` to
`C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\uv` in v0.3.0. We're considering this a
bug, since it does _not_ match the documentation, and prior to v0.3.0,
we always used the former. This PR migrates back to the previous
location. It should be seamless for users, as we move the cache items to
the new location on startup.
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/6417.
This PR moves us to the Linux strategy for our global directories on
macOS. We both feel on the team _and_ have received feedback (in Issues
and Polls) that the `Application Support` directories are more intended
for GUIs, and CLI tools are correct to respect the XDG variables and use
the same directory paths on Linux and macOS.
Namely, we now use:
- `/Users/crmarsh/.local/share/uv/tools` (for tools)
- `/Users/crmarsh/.local/share/uv/python` (for Pythons)
- `/Users/crmarsh/.cache/uv` (for the cache)
The strategy is such that if the `/Users/crmarsh/Library/Application
Support/uv` already exists, we keep using it -- same goes for
`/Users/crmarsh/Library/Caches/uv`, so **it's entirely backwards
compatible**.
If you want to force a migration to the new schema, you can run:
- `uv cache clean`
- `uv tool uninstall --all`
- `uv python uninstall --all`
Which will clean up the macOS-specific directories, paving the way for
the above paths. In other words, once you run those commands, subsequent
`uv` operations will automatically use the `~/.cache` and `~/.local`
variants.
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/4411.

## Summary
Passing `--upgrade` to `tool run` is confusing, because it doesn't
upgrade the installed tool. It just causes us to use an isolated tool
environment, which seems wrong.
## Summary
This PR adds a `DistExtension` field to some of our distribution types,
which requires that we validate that the file type is known and
supported when parsing (rather than when attempting to unzip). It
removes a bunch of extension parsing from the code too, in favor of
doing it once upfront.
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/5858.
## Summary
I think this seems reasonable... Otherwise, we might not go back to PyPI
to revalidate the list of available versions despite the user passing
`--upgrade`.
The comment in the code explains the bulk of this:
```rust
// We previously computed this heuristic freshness lifetime by
// looking at the difference between the last modified header and
// the response's date header. We then asserted that the cached
// response ought to be "fresh" for 10% of that interval.
//
// It turns out that this can result in very long freshness
// lifetimes[1] that lead to uv caching too aggressively.
//
// Since PyPI sets a max-age of 600 seconds and since we're
// principally just interacting with Python package indices here,
// we just assume a freshness lifetime equal to what PyPI has.
//
// Note though that a better solution here is for the index to
// support proper HTTP caching headers (ideally Cache-Control, but
// Expires also works too, as above).
```
We also remove the `heuristic_percent` field on `CacheConfig`. Since
that's actually part of the cache itself, we bump the simple cache
version.
Finally, we add some more `trace!` calls that should hopefully make
diagnosing issues related to the freshness lifetime a bit easier in the
future.
Fixes#5351
## Summary
If you have an executable path on a network share path (like
`\\some-host\some-share\...\python.exe`), canonicalizing it adds the
`\\?` prefix, but dunce cannot safely strip it.
This PR changes the Windows logic to avoid canonicalizing altogether. We
don't really expect symlinks on Windows, so it seems unimportant to
resolve them.
Closes: https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/5440.
## Summary
Users can now run `uv cache prune --ci` (open to feedback on the name of
that flag) to remove all pre-built wheels from the cache, leaving behind
zipped, built wheels (which tend to be the most expensive assets to
re-create). This should greatly increase cache performance in CI
environments, since uploading unzipped wheels can actually hurt
performance if you're persisting the uv cache.
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/5282.
This name should lead to less confusion. Unfortunately this is a
"breaking cache change" so everyone's cache will be invalidated. I'm not
sure if we should support a rename-on-upgrade.
edit: We can make the breaking change next time we bump the version
## Summary
The basic strategy:
- When the user does `uv tool run`, we resolve the `from` and `with`
requirements (always).
- After resolving, we generate a hash of the requirements. For now, I'm
just converting to a lockfile and hashing _that_, but that's an
implementation detail.
- Once we have a hash, we _also_ hash the interpreter.
- We then store environments in
`${CACHE_DIR}/${INTERPRETER_HASH}/${RESOLUTION_HASH}`.
Some consequences:
- We cache based on the interpreter, so if you request a different
Python, we'll create a new environment (even if they're compatible).
This has the nice side-effect of ensuring that we don't use environments
for interpreters that were later deleted.
- We cache the `from` and `with` together. In practice, we may want to
cache them separately, then layer them? But this is also an
implementation detail that we could change later.
- Because we use the lockfile as the cache key, we will invalidate the
cache when the format changes. That seems ok, but we could improve it in
the future by generating a stable hash from a lockfile that's
independent of the schema.
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/4752.
## Summary
The build tags in this case are like, e.g., `202206090410`. That's
larger than a `u32`, so we're rejecting the wheel. In theory build tags
could be even larger, but we already use `u64` for version segment so I
think it's fine to keep that constraint here.
I'm going to look into surfacing these errors separately.
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/4252.
## Test Plan
`cargo run pip install monailabel`
## Summary
We may choose to persist these eventually, but for now, it's useful to
have them colocated with the cache, and in their own dedicated bucket
(so, at the very least, we can keep track of the use-cases).
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/issues/4219.
## Summary
There are a few behavior changes in here:
- We now enforce `--require-hashes` for editables, like pip. So if you
use `--require-hashes` with an editable requirement, we'll reject it. I
could change this if it seems off.
- We now treat source tree requirements, editable or not (e.g., both `-e
./black` and `./black`) as if `--refresh` is always enabled. This
doesn't mean that we _always_ rebuild them; but if you pass
`--reinstall`, then yes, we always rebuild them. I think this is an
improvement and is close to how editables work today.
Closes#3844.
Closes#2695.
