Git, Conda - How can I "pip install git git:<repo>" with the new Git policies in pla-CodePudding

I have this conda yml file for installing dependencies and creating a new conda env.

conda_env.yml forked from https://github.com/MishaLaskin/rad:

name: rad
channels:
  - defaults
dependencies:
  - python=3.6
  - pytorch
  - torchvision
  - cudatoolkit=9.2
  - absl-py
  - pyparsing
  - pillow=6.1
  - pip:
    - termcolor
    - git git://github.com/deepmind/dm_control.git
    - git git://github.com/1nadequacy/dmc2gym.git
    - tb-nightly
    - imageio
    - imageio-ffmpeg
    - torchvision
    - scikit-image
    - tabulate

I try to run conda env create --file conda_env.yml and here's the stack trace I get.

CondaEnvException: Pip failed

Seems like the new git policies block you from doing this. Is there anyway around this?

CodePudding user response：

As @torek points out, and the documentation directed to in the error message explains, the git:// protocol has phased out on GitHub. Switch to using https://, i.e., in this case:

  - pip:
    - git https://github.com/deepmind/dm_control.git
    - git https://github.com/1nadequacy/dmc2gym.git
    ...
