This Python breakfast just got tastier. A major update to the way Virtualenv Burrito works was released this weekend. There is now full support for extension points and a less hackish way of managing the packages1 under the hood.
Already have Virtualenv Burrito installed? Run this:
virtualenv-burrito upgrade
New to Virtualenv Burrito? Read about it or run this:
curl -s https://raw.github.com/brainsik/virtualenv-burrito/master/virtualenv-burrito.sh | bash
Virtualenv Burrito’s goal is to have a working virtualenv + virtualenvwrapper environment with just one command. Read about it on Github or see the original announcement.
