I'm using pip in a virtualenv and have installed a package from a git repo by doing this:
pip install -e git://github.com/dwaiter/django-bcrypt.git@475a3bef1e3ff31935a2dc905e244a63a804fce9#egg=django_bcrypt-dev
But I now want to uninstall that and can't see how, as it doesn't have a conventional package name. I've tried what seem like obvious variations (like replacing 'install' with 'uninstall') but can't see how to do this from the docs.
(In this case I ultimately want to upgrade from the git repo version of django-bcrypt to version 0.9.2, and am assuming I need to uninstall the git version first.)
Navigate to Control Panel. Click “Uninstall a program”, and a list of all the currently installed programs will display. Select the Python version that you want to uninstall, then click the “Uninstall” button above the list – this has to be done for every Python version installed on the system.
Run command prompt as administrator. Give the command easy_install -m pip. This may not uninstall pip completely. So again give this command pip uninstall pip If by previous command pip got uninstalled then this command wont run, else it will completely remove pip.
You uninstall it like you would any other library:
pip uninstall django-bcrypt
If you want to ultimately upgrade, you could also do
pip install --upgrade -e git://github.com/dwaiter/django-bcrypt.git#egg=django_bcrypt
