## Summary
For PEP 517 builds, the current working directory needs to be set to the
directory of the source distribution. It turns out that on Windows, if
you use a UNC path for the working directory, then relative paths are
interpreted relative to the root of the current drive
([source](https://www.fileside.app/blog/2023-03-17_windows-file-paths/#paths-relative-to-the-root-of-the-current-drive)).
So, when builds attempted to resolve relative paths, they always
errored...
This PR ensures that we remove the UNC prefix when setting the current
working directory.
Closes#1238.
## Test Plan
I tested this on my Windows machine by installing `ujson` with
`--no-binary ujson`. (I don't want to add that specific test, since it's
really slow to build.)
Contrary to our prior assumption, we can't reliably select a specific
patch version. With the deadsnakes PPA for example, `python3.12` is
installed into `PATH`, but `python3.12.1` isn't. Based on the assumption
(or rather, observation) that users have a single python patch version
per python minor version installed, generally the latest, we only check
if the installed patch version matches the selected patch version, if
any, instead of search for one.
In the process, i deduplicated the python discovery logic.
Run `cargo test` on windows in CI, pulling the switch on tier 1 windows
support.
These changes make the bootstrap script virtually required for running
the tests. This gives us consistency between and CI, but it also locks
our tests to python-build-standalone and an articificial `PATH`.
I've deleted the shell bootstrap script in favor of only the python one,
which also runs on windows. I've left the (sym)link creation of the
bootstrap in place, even though it is not used by the tests anymore.
I've reactivated the three tests that would previously stack overflow by
doubling their stack sizes. The stack overflows only happen in debug
mode, so this is neither a user facing problem nor an actual problem
with our code and this workaround seems better than optimizing our code
for case that the (release) compiler can optimize much better for.
The handling of patch versions will be fixed in a follow-up PR.

We need more flexible filters than those `inta` offers, and `insta_cmd`
makes it impossible to plug in programmatic filters. At the same time we
use barely any of `insta_cmd`'s features. We can replace the subset we
need in about 50 loc.
Mostly a mechanical refactor to use the `puffin_snapshot!` and
`TestContext` infrastructure in the add, remove, venv and pip uninstall
tests, in preparation for adding programmatic windows testing filters.
The is only one remaining usage of `assert_cmd_snapshot!` now in the
`puffin_snapshot!` macro.
Split out from the large test refactoring PR. Use `normalized_display`
in tests and two more thiserror derives to match snapshots and output,
and other small windows fixes.
Use `virtualenv` consistently, remove unused error variants and hint the
user towards installing missing python versions.
I didn't touch the Readme but i replaced `virtualenv environment` with
`virtualenv` in the strings i found.
Fixes https://github.com/astral-sh/puffin/issues/1167
Replaces https://github.com/astral-sh/puffin/pull/1068 and #1070 which
were more complicated than I wanted.
- Introduces a `.python-versions` file which defines the Python versions
needed for development
- Adds a Bash script at `scripts/bootstrap/install` which installs the
required Python versions from `python-build-standalone` to `./bin`
- Checks in a `versions.json` file with metadata about available
versions on each platform and a `fetch-version` Python script derived
from `rye` for updating the versions
- Updates CI to use these Python builds instead of the `setup-python`
action
- Updates to the latest packse scenarios which require Python 3.8+
instead of 3.7+ since we cannot use 3.7 anymore and includes new test
coverage of patch Python version requests
- Adds a `PUFFIN_PYTHON_PATH` variable to prevent lookup of system
Python versions for isolation during development
Tested on Linux (via CI) and macOS (locally) — presumably it will be a
bit more complicated to do proper Windows support.
## Summary
First batch of changes for windows support. Notable changes:
* Fixes all compile errors and added windows specific paths.
* Working venv creation on windows, both from a base interpreter and
from a venv. This requires querying `stdlib` from the sysconfig paths to
find the launcher.
* Basic url/path conversion handling for windows.
* `if cfg!(...)` instead of `#[cfg()]`. This should make it easier to
keep everything compiling across platforms.
## Outlook
Test summary: 402 tests run: 299 passed (15 slow), 103 failed, 1 skipped
There are various reason for the remaining test failure:
* Windows-specific colorama and tzdata dependencies that change the
snapshot slightly. This is by far the biggest batch.
* Some url-path handling issues. I fixed some in the PR, some remain.
* Lack of the latest python patch versions for older pythons on my
machine, since there are no builds for windows and we need to register
them in the registry for them to be picked up for `py --list-paths` (CC
@zanieb RE #1070).
* Lack of entrypoint launchers.
* ... likely more
In https://github.com/astral-sh/puffin/pull/986 there was some confusion
about what these values are set to and I noticed that we never actually
display the target version being used for a resolution.
- Consistently display the Python interpreter being used, i.e. make it
clear that we are referring the the interpreter/installed Python version
and always show the version number
- Display the target Python version during solving
