[ENH] - Refactor logic around environment creation to allow packages to be shared #950

Open peytondmurray opened 2 weeks ago

peytondmurray commented 2 weeks ago

Feature description

Currently, conda environments created by conda-store do not share packages. In deployments containing many builds, this can lead to many duplicate packages, which uses much more storage than necessary. Refactor the logic around creating new environments so that packages are shared across environments.

Value and/or benefit

Greatly reduced disk usage.

Anything else?
