it is indeed infrequent, but the modern world has trained me to expect convenience and instant-ness. Last time i wanted a 12-year-old email I was in the car with friends and and to pull it up. it wasn’t anything important at all, to be clear, but i’m hoping to search my 12-year-old emails with the same convenience as last month’s.
The git repo should ignore the venv folder, so when you clone you then create a new one and activate it with those steps.
Then when you are installing requirements with pip, the repo you cloned will likely have a requirements.txt file in it, so you ‘pip install -r requirements.txt’
