![]() In the resolver, our current model for solving URL dependencies requires that we visit the URL dependency _before_ the registry-based dependency. This PR encodes a strict requirement that all URL dependencies be declared upfront, either as requirements or constraints. I wrote more about how it works and why it's necessary in documentation [here](https://github.com/astral-sh/puffin/pull/319/files#diff-2b1c4f36af0c62a2b7bebeae9473ae083588f2a6b18a3ec52393a24266adecbbR20). I think we could relax this constraint over time, but it requires a more sophisticated model -- and for now, I just want something that's (1) correct, (2) easy for us to reason about, and (3) easy for users to reason about. As additional motivation... allowing arbitrary URL dependencies anywhere in the tree creates some really confusing situations in which I'm not even sure what the right answers are. For example, assume you declare a direct dependency on `Werkzeug==2.0.0`. You then depend on a version of Flask that depends on a version of `Werkzeug` from some arbitrary URL. You build the source distribution at that arbitrary URL, and it turns out it _does_ build to a declared version of 2.0.0. What should happen? (And if it resolves to a version that _isn't_ 2.0.0, what should happen _then_?) I suspect different tools handle this differently, but it must lead to a lot of "silent" failures. In my testing of Poetry, it seems like Poetry just ignores the URL dependency, which seems wrong, but is also a behavior we could implement in the future.
