This version has changed a lot of things, most of them are BREAKING CHANGEs!
Dropped support for Python versions older than 3.7.
Redesigned the command line interface.
pigar generate to generate requirements.txt.
pigar search to search packages/distributions by the top level module names.
pigar check to check the latest versions of requirements.
pigar -h to explore more.
pigar accepts a prefix for a command, such as pigar gen, pigar c.
Refactored/changed a lot of code and interfaces.
Vendoring the pip to access more sophisticated utilities(pip named it's module as _internal so vendoring technology is introduced).
Fixed a lot of issues when parsing the requirements file, e.g. #113.
Fixed the issues for editable requirements, e.g. #60.
Tweaked some default actions and introduced more options for better user experience.
pigar will ask user to choose the right packages/distributions if pigar has found multiple packages/distributions for the same module names. With--auto-select enabled, pigar will guess the best matched one or choose all possible packages/distributions automatically.
Added an option --dry-run which allows pigar to not write a requirements.txt file, just print it.
Added an option --follow-symbolic-links/--dont-follow-symbolic-links to let user decide whether to follow the symbolic links, fixed #89.
Added an option -i/--index-url to allow the custom URL of the Python Package Index, fixed #52.
Removed the spaces from requirements specifier, fixed #86.
Added an option --show-differences/--dont-show-differences to enable or disable showing the differences when the requirements file is overwritten.
Introduced asyncio to synchronize distributions' metadata with the PyPI, the process is much faster now.
Refactored the code to make the index database more reliable.
Add unique contstraints to avoid duplicate records, fixed #119.
Store versions in the database to do incremental index synchronization.
