I was advised to use pip install module-name -t /path/to/project-dir, but I did not understand what the t flag is for. Can someone help me?

From the manual:

-t, --target <dir>
     Install packages into <dir>.
     By default this will not replace existing files/folders in <dir>.
     Use --upgrade to replace existing packages in <dir> with new versions.

At the time of writing, OP has 4 thumbs down because the question was worded in granular manner not indicative of the real problem, paraphrased below:

"Why does the --help option not display all possible flags that the pip command supports, and their usages?"

Answer: More are covered in the manual page link that user:plaes provided, such as "-r" for requirements.
