matteius wants to merge 18 commits into
Conversation
Maintainer answers to the 10 questions in initiative-f-backends-design.md §6 captured as a sign-off addendum: 1. Pipfile opt-in: [pipenv] resolver = "..." (plus pyproject/pylock readers) 2. CLI: --resolver NAME 3. Lockfile: support BOTH Pipfile.lock + pylock.toml 4. Missing-backend: fail loud 5. Pip _meta.resolver_backend: omit (rec accepted) 6. Cross-backend re-lock: refuse without --allow-backend-switch (rec) 7. New schema fields: NONE — keep backend-neutral (rec) 8. Vendor vs system uv: DEFER — T_F.5 here is groundwork only 9. Test matrix expansion: DEFER to uv-backend follow-up 10. News fragment category: .feature.rst Critically, answer 8 re-scopes T_F.5 in this branch: scaffolding only (Backend protocol, pipenv/resolver/backends/ package, registry, Pipfile reading, --resolver flag, fail-loud error). The uv backend port from origin/uv-backend and the dual-backend test matrix become T_F.8 in a future iteration; T_F.5 lays the framework now.

…y; delete legacy requirementslib.py (T_E.4)
T_E.4: Per the T_E.1 design + §6 question 4 sign-off ("APPROVED as
proposed: new pipenv/utils/unpack.py"), relocate the pip-internal fork
pair plus their local VCS_SCHEMES set out of pipenv/utils/requirementslib.py
into a new pipenv/utils/unpack.py. Then delete the now-empty
requirementslib.py shell.
Moved:
unpack_url (~63 lines incl. provenance docstring)
get_http_url (~38 lines incl. provenance docstring)
VCS_SCHEMES (25-element set, used only by unpack_url)
The new module has a top-level docstring noting the pip-internal-fork
provenance, points at the two design docs (initiative-b-triage,
initiative-e-design), and the per-function provenance commentary
(load-bearing divergences: VCS-link return-value handling in unpack_url;
globally_managed=False in get_http_url) is preserved verbatim from
the requirementslib.py copy.
VCS_SCHEMES placement: kept alongside unpack_url in unpack.py rather
than moved to pipenv/utils/constants.py. Reason: zero cross-module
callers (only unpack_url itself reads it; the constants.py VCS_SCHEMES
is a distinct list of vcs+transport strings that does NOT contain the
bare git/hg/svn/bzr schemes the unpack set needs).
Caller migration (1 file):
- pipenv/utils/dependencies.py:41
from pipenv.utils.requirementslib import unpack_url
-> from pipenv.utils.unpack import unpack_url
Files moved: pipenv/utils/requirementslib.py -> pipenv/utils/unpack.py
Files deleted: pipenv/utils/requirementslib.py (now zero in-tree)
Files modified: pipenv/utils/dependencies.py (1 import line);
tests/unit/test_dependencies_bridges.py (T_E.3
"old module no longer exports moved symbols" test
strengthened to "module itself is gone")
Test pinning (8 new in tests/unit/test_unpack.py):
Import-shape pins (5):
- unpack_url importable from pipenv.utils.unpack
- get_http_url importable from pipenv.utils.unpack
- VCS_SCHEMES is a set on the new module (distinct from the
constants.py list)
- pipenv.utils.requirementslib module is gone
- pipenv.utils.dependencies sources unpack_url from the new home
Behavioural smoke (3):
- unpack_url returns File(location, content_type=None) for VCS
links (load-bearing divergence from upstream pip's None return)
- bare 'git' scheme (no +transport) triggers the VCS branch via
our local VCS_SCHEMES set
- get_http_url constructs TempDirectory with
globally_managed=False (load-bearing divergence from pip's True)
Validation:
- tests/unit/ suite: 790 passed, 9 skipped (was 791 collected before;
+8 new in test_unpack.py = 799 collected, with 9 pre-existing
Windows-only skips).
- grep -rn 'from pipenv.utils.requirementslib\|pipenv\.utils\.requirementslib'
under pipenv/ tests/ (excluding vendor + patched) returns zero
real-import hits; only two negative-assertion test calls remain
(in test_unpack.py and test_dependencies_bridges.py, both calling
importlib.import_module to assert ModuleNotFoundError is raised).
Initiative E status after this commit: T_E.2, T_E.3, T_E.4 complete.
The 'requirementslib.py' file is gone. T_E.5 (BAD_PACKAGES) and T_E.6
(add_index_to_pipfile rename) were folded into T_E.2. T_E.7 (optional
requirements.py -> redact.py rename) remains as the only Initiative E
follow-up; it depends on no other E work and can be sequenced at the
maintainer's discretion.

Adds the full T_E.4 entry to docs/dev/modernization-plan.md following the T_E.3 format: status Completed, log of moved symbols + caller-migration summary + test-pinning summary, files-edited/created list. Notes that after T_E.4 Initiative E is structurally complete; only the optional T_E.7 rename remains. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Per the maintainer sign-off recorded in
docs/dev/initiative-f-backends-design.md (2026-05-12), T_F.5 in this PR
is scaffolding only:
* NEW pipenv/resolver/backends/ subpackage with a Backend protocol
(base.py), a name -> backend REGISTRY + get_backend() dispatcher
(__init__.py), and the in-tree PipBackend (pip.py) that wraps the
existing resolve flow.
* pipenv/resolver/core.py: resolve_for_pipenv is now a thin dispatcher;
the original resolve plumbing moves into _pip_resolve and is invoked
via PipBackend.resolve. Behaviour is unchanged for the default case.
* Precedence chain CLI > env > Pipfile > default is honoured by
_selected_backend_name(). Unknown / unavailable backends yield a
structured InternalError response (fail-loud per sign-off Q4).
* --resolver NAME CLI flag added on install/lock/sync/upgrade subcommands;
PIPENV_RESOLVER env var declared in environments.py; Settings.resolver
reads [pipenv] resolver from the Pipfile. ExecutionOptions.resolver on
RoutineContext propagates the CLI choice down to the resolve layer.
* ResolverOptions.backend ("" sentinel default) carries the choice across
the wire; suppressed when empty so existing wire-shape goldens stay
byte-identical (no fixture regen required).
* TODO(T_F.8) marker left at pipenv/utils/pylock.py for the future
[tool.pipenv] resolver hook in pyproject.toml / pylock.toml.
The actual uv backend port from origin/uv-backend (sign-off Q8) becomes
a follow-up initiative; this PR ships the framework so a later PR can
register additional backends with no further plumbing churn.
9 new unit tests in tests/unit/test_resolver_backends.py cover:
- registry dispatch + unknown-backend fail-loud
- PipBackend.is_available() / .resolve() shape parity with
resolve_for_pipenv
- missing-backend -> InternalError (no crash)
- precedence: CLI > env > Pipfile > default
- Settings.resolver reads [pipenv] resolver
news/T_F.5.feature.rst added per sign-off Q10 (.feature.rst).

Per the 2026-05-12 maintainer sign-off, T_F.5 was re-scoped to scaffolding only: the Backend protocol, the registry, the pip backend wrapping the existing flow, and the CLI/env/Pipfile precedence chain. The uv backend port (and its dual-backend test matrix) becomes a future T_F.8 (or similar) initiative. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Fourth extraction in Initiative D (after T_D.2 Sources, T_D.3 Settings,
and T_D.4 VenvLocator). The 13 Lockfile-classified methods on
pipenv.project.Project move into a new pipenv.utils.lockfile.Lockfile
class accessed via a @cached_property on Project. Every internal
caller migrated to the new access path in the same PR (per T_D.1
§8.4 sign-off: no holding-pattern wrappers, no DeprecationWarning).
Per T_D.1 §8.1 maintainer sign-off pylock.toml (PEP 751) support is
NOT folded into this extraction; the new Lockfile subsystem handles
only the legacy Pipfile.lock format. The pylock detection seams in
.content / .as_dict / .write / .any_exists / .pylock_* carry
``# TODO(pylock):`` tags (10 distinct annotations) so the format-
detection layer is re-findable for the 2027 follow-up.
API rename (matches T_D.2 Sources / T_D.4 VenvLocator patterns):
project.lockfile(categories=...) -> project.lockfile.as_dict(categories=...)
project.lockfile_location -> project.lockfile.location
project.lockfile_exists -> project.lockfile.exists
project.lockfile_content -> project.lockfile.content
project.lockfile_package_names -> project.lockfile.package_names
project.any_lockfile_exists -> project.lockfile.any_exists
project.pylock_location -> project.lockfile.pylock_location
project.pylock_exists -> project.lockfile.pylock_exists
project.pylock_output_path -> project.lockfile.pylock_output_path
project.get_lockfile_meta() -> project.lockfile.meta()
project.get_lockfile_hash() -> project.lockfile.hash()
project.load_lockfile(...) -> project.lockfile.load(...)
project.write_lockfile(content) -> project.lockfile.write(content)
Naming-collision resolution: the previous ``Project.lockfile`` was a
CALLABLE method returning the lockfile dict. The new ``Project.lockfile``
is the subsystem instance, and the previous method becomes
``Lockfile.as_dict(categories=...)``. Mirrors the T_D.2 Sources pattern
(``Project.sources`` went from "list of dicts" to subsystem instance,
old data exposed as ``project.sources.all``).
pipenv/project.py shrinks by 173 net lines (1281 -> 1108) and loses
the imports it no longer needs (JSONDecodeError, LockfileCorruptException,
atomic_open_for_write, PylockFile, find_pylock_file, expand_url_credentials).
The extracted methods + their docstrings live in pipenv/utils/lockfile.py
(354 lines).
The orchestrating ``get_or_create_lockfile`` stays on ``Project``
per the T_D.1 §2 ``coordinator`` bucket — it crosses Lockfile +
Sources + Pipfile boundaries and is the only legitimate
cross-subsystem consumer of all three.
Cross-subsystem references documented in the inventory (§3) and
honoured here:
- Lockfile -> Pipfile: meta() and load() read project.pipfile_location
and call project.calculate_pipfile_hash().
- Lockfile -> Sources: meta() reads project.sources.pipfile_sources()
and uses Sources.populate_source as the source canonicaliser.
- Lockfile -> Settings: content / write read project.settings.use_pylock;
pylock_output_path reads project.settings.get("pylock_name").
- Sources -> Lockfile (back-reference): Sources.all reads
project.lockfile.any_exists and project.lockfile.content
(migrated in this PR).
Caller-site migration covers production code (pipenv/help.py,
pipenv/routines/{audit,check,clean,install,lock,requirements,scan,
sync,uninstall,update}.py, pipenv/utils/sources.py) and test code
(tests/integration/{test_install_markers,test_lockfile,test_pylock}.py,
tests/unit/{test_do_update_context_routing,test_lock_sync_uninstall_context_routing,
test_pylock}.py).
Tests: 17 new in tests/unit/test_lockfile.py covering the constructor,
the @cached_property accessor, location / exists / any_exists, the
pylock_* accessors and pylock_output_path default, load / content /
as_dict / write round-trip, meta / hash / package_names, and the
empty-lockfile / no-lockfile edge cases.
Full unit suite green: 816 passed, 9 skipped (above the 780 baseline).
``pipenv lock`` smoke test produces a valid Pipfile.lock.

Records the 2026-05-12 Lockfile-subsystem extraction outcome: 13 methods relocated to ``pipenv/utils/lockfile.py``, ``project.py`` shrinks by 173 net lines, 17 new unit tests, 10 ``# TODO(pylock):`` annotations at the format-detection seams.

…nitiative D complete
Fifth and final extraction in Initiative D (after T_D.2 Sources, T_D.3
Settings, T_D.4 VenvLocator, and T_D.5 Lockfile). The 38 Pipfile-bucket
methods on pipenv.project.Project move into a new Pipfile class in
pipenv.utils.pipfile, accessed via a @cached_property Project.pipfile.
Every internal caller migrated to the new access path in the same PR
(per T_D.1 §8.4 sign-off: no holding-pattern wrappers, no
DeprecationWarning).
Naming-collision resolution: pipenv/utils/pipfile.py previously hosted a
plette-wrapper dataclass named Pipfile (used only by
pipenv.utils.locking.Lockfile.lockfile_from_pipfile). Per the T_D.5
pattern, the legacy dataclass was renamed to PlettePipfile so the
unqualified name Pipfile is now reserved for the Initiative-D subsystem.
The single caller migrated to the new name in the same commit.
API rename (matches T_D.2 Sources / T_D.4 VenvLocator / T_D.5 Lockfile;
the pipfile_ / _pipfile prefixes drop because the subsystem is named
pipfile):
project.parsed_pipfile -> project.pipfile.parsed
project.pipfile_location -> project.pipfile.location
project.pipfile_exists -> project.pipfile.exists
project.pipfile_is_empty -> project.pipfile.is_empty
project.read_pipfile() -> project.pipfile.read()
project.name -> project.pipfile.name
project.project_directory -> project.pipfile.project_directory
project.required_python_version -> project.pipfile.required_python_version
project.requirements_location -> project.pipfile.requirements_location
project.requirements_exists -> project.pipfile.requirements_exists
project.get_pipfile_section(s) -> project.pipfile.get_section(s)
project.get_package_categories(...) -> project.pipfile.get_package_categories(...)
project.pipfile_package_names -> project.pipfile.package_names
project.write_toml(...) -> project.pipfile.write_toml(...)
project.has_script(n) -> project.pipfile.has_script(n)
project.build_script(n, args) -> project.pipfile.build_script(n, args)
project.proper_names -> project.pipfile.proper_names
project.register_proper_name(n) -> project.pipfile.register_proper_name(n)
project.pipfile_build_requires -> project.pipfile.build_requires
project.calculate_pipfile_hash() -> project.pipfile.calculate_hash()
project.all_packages -> project.pipfile.all_packages
project.packages -> project.pipfile.packages
project.dev_packages -> project.pipfile.dev_packages
project.get_editable_packages(c) -> project.pipfile.get_editable_packages(c)
project.get_package_name_in_pipfile(..) -> project.pipfile.get_package_name(..)
project.get_pipfile_entry(..) -> project.pipfile.get_entry(..)
project.remove_package_from_pipfile(..) -> project.pipfile.remove_package(..)
project.remove_packages_from_pipfile(.) -> project.pipfile.remove_packages(.)
project.reset_category_in_pipfile(c) -> project.pipfile.reset_category(c)
project.generate_package_pipfile_entry -> project.pipfile.generate_entry
project.add_package_to_pipfile(..) -> project.pipfile.add_package(..)
project.add_pipfile_entry_to_pipfile(.) -> project.pipfile.add_entry(.)
project.add_packages_to_pipfile_batch(.) -> project.pipfile.add_packages_batch(.)
project.recase_pipfile() -> project.pipfile.recase()
project.ensure_proper_casing() -> project.pipfile.ensure_proper_casing()
project.proper_case_section(s) -> project.pipfile.proper_case_section(s)
Project._parse_pipfile (internal) -> Pipfile._parse (staticmethod)
Project._get_vcs_packages (internal) -> Pipfile._get_vcs_packages
Project._sort_category (internal) -> Pipfile._sort_category
Project NON_CATEGORY_SECTIONS const -> pipenv.utils.pipfile.NON_CATEGORY_SECTIONS
The mtime-invalidated parsed-Pipfile cache (was
_parsed_pipfile_cache + _parsed_pipfile_mtime_ns on Project; T_D.1
inventory §5: "critical lazy-init") moved verbatim onto Pipfile as
_parsed_cache + _parsed_mtime_ns. The cache lives with the subsystem
that owns the file; Pipfile.write_toml is the single invalidator, and
every external writer (Sources.add_index_to_pipfile, Settings.update,
coordinator Project.create_pipfile) routes through Pipfile.write_toml
rather than poking at the cache directly.
pipenv/project.py shrinks by 617 net lines (1108 -> 491) and loses the
imports it no longer needs (Script, InstallRequirement, VCS_LIST,
extract_vcs_url, normalize_editable_path_for_pip, unquote, plette/tomlkit
items, several pipenv.utils.* helpers, tomllib/tomli, find_requirements,
proper_case, pep423_name, and the determine_*/expansive_install_req_from_line
imports). The extracted methods + their docstrings live in
pipenv/utils/pipfile.py (which grew from 416 to ~1275 lines).
Cross-subsystem references (per T_D.1 §3) honoured:
- Lockfile -> Pipfile: Lockfile.meta() calls
project.pipfile.calculate_hash() and reads project.pipfile.parsed.
Lockfile.load() / .as_dict() / .hash() read project.pipfile.location.
Lockfile.package_names reads project.pipfile.get_package_categories.
- Sources -> Pipfile: Sources.add_index_to_pipfile writes via
project.pipfile.write_toml; pipfile_sources reads
project.pipfile.parsed.
- Settings -> Pipfile: Settings._table() reads
project.pipfile.parsed["pipenv"]; Settings.update writes via
project.pipfile.write_toml.
- VenvLocator -> Pipfile: is_venv_in_project reads
project.pipfile.parsed["pipenv"], project.pipfile.exists; .location
reads project.pipfile.project_directory; .name reads
project.pipfile.name; the hash routine reads
project.pipfile.location.
- Pipfile -> VenvLocator: proper_names / register_proper_name read
project.venv_locator.proper_names_db_path (the file physically lives
under the venv per T_D.4).
- Pipfile -> Settings: remove_package, add_entry, add_packages_batch
all read project.settings.get("sort_pipfile").
The orchestrating coordinators stay on Project per T_D.1 §2:
create_pipfile (spans Sources/VenvLocator/Settings/Pipfile),
get_or_create_lockfile (spans Lockfile/Sources/Pipfile), and
get_environment / environment (span Pipfile/Sources/VenvLocator/Settings).
Caller-site migration touched 26 production files and 14 test files.
Mechanically: ~140 production sites + ~70 test sites were rewritten
from project.X to project.pipfile.X across pipenv/cli/command.py,
pipenv/environment.py, pipenv/help.py, every pipenv/routines/*.py,
pipenv/utils/dependencies.py, environment.py, lockfile.py,
locking.py (the PlettePipfile rename), project.py, resolver.py,
settings.py, sources.py, toml.py, venv_locator.py, virtualenv.py,
plus all referenced unit tests and three integration tests. A small
targeted hand-fix migrated three remaining call sites that the
bulk-rewrite avoided (the bare project.name in venv_locator.py /
virtualenv.py / test_utils.py mock builders, the
getattr(project, 'project_directory', None) shape in
dependencies.clean_resolved_dep, and the self.packages in
resolver.py).
Tests: 42 new in tests/unit/test_pipfile_subsystem.py covering the
constructor and @cached_property accessor, location / exists / name /
project_directory, requirements sibling, required_python_version,
mtime-invalidated parsed cache, write-to-disk + cache invalidation,
write-elsewhere does NOT invalidate, read / is_empty, section and
category accessors, build-system parsing, scripts, package mutators
(remove / reset / bulk remove / add_entry), key lookup with casing,
PEP 503 hash digest + casing invariance, proper-names DB write/read,
and ensure_proper_casing's network-failure fallback.
Full unit suite green: 858 passed, 9 skipped (above the 816 T_D.5
baseline; +42 = the new pipfile-subsystem tests). ``pipenv lock`` smoke
test produces a valid Pipfile.lock and the same canonical hash before
and after the extraction.
Helper-bucket disposition (per T_D.1 §8.5 / §6.5 — the "revisit after
T_D.6 lands" promise):
- path_to(p) — uses self._original_dir; one-line wrapper.
RECOMMENDATION: leave on Project (orchestrator role). The
_original_dir snapshot is captured in __init__ and feels
load-bearing on the Project root; not worth the churn.
- prepend_hash_types(checksums, hash_type) — pure classmethod, no
self. RECOMMENDATION: move to pipenv/utils/hashing.py (new small
module) as a free function. Defer to a separate maintenance pass;
not blocking.
- get_file_hash(session, link) — pure staticmethod, no self.
RECOMMENDATION: move alongside prepend_hash_types in the same
follow-up. Defer.
- _lockfile_encoder (class attribute, JSONEncoder subclass) —
RECOMMENDATION: stays on Project (lockfile-writer detail; lives
where Lockfile.write looks it up).
The orchestrating methods (get_environment, environment,
installed_packages, installed_package_names, create_pipfile,
get_or_create_lockfile) stay on Project per the T_D.1 §2 coordinator
bucket — they're cross-subsystem orchestrators and there is no
smaller home for them.
With T_D.6 landed, Initiative D is structurally complete: the five
subsystems (Sources, Settings, VenvLocator, Lockfile, Pipfile) are
extracted, all callers migrated, and pipenv/project.py sits at
491 lines (down from 1848 at the start of Initiative D — a 73%
reduction). The remaining helper-bucket cleanup is a low-priority
follow-up and not on the critical path.

T_D.6 landed in commit 3a160cb — the fifth and final Initiative D extraction. ``pipenv/project.py`` is at its target lean shape (491 lines, down from 1848 at the start of Initiative D — a 73% reduction). The five subsystems (Sources, Settings, VenvLocator, Lockfile, Pipfile) now live in independent modules under ``pipenv/utils/``, accessed via ``@cached_property`` on ``Project``.

…se-3 regression)
Phase-3 CI run (2026-05-12) had 18 integration tests failing reproducibly
with this pattern:
Building requirements...
Resolving dependencies...
Success! <-- default category locks OK
Building requirements...
Resolving dependencies...
Locking Failed! <-- dev category dies
...
raise ResolutionFailure("Failed to lock Pipfile.lock!")
The captured stderr was full of:
VERBOSE:pipenv.patched.pip._internal.configuration:For variant 'global', ...
VERBOSE:pipenv.patched.pip._internal.configuration:For variant 'site', ...
(hundreds of lines per config load, three loads per subprocess)
Root cause: T_F.7's ``_capture_resolver_log`` raised the ``pipenv``
logger's level to ``DEBUG`` during capture. Python's logger inheritance
walks NOTSET children up to the first ancestor with an explicit level
when computing the effective level, so setting ``pipenv`` to DEBUG made
EVERY ``pipenv.*`` child — including ``pipenv.patched.pip._internal.
configuration`` — see DEBUG as its effective filter. pip's config-
loader is naturally chatty at DEBUG; those records propagated to root,
where pip's pre-installed handler (with its custom ``VERBOSE:`` formatter)
emitted them. On the SECOND resolve in a multi-category ``pipenv lock``,
the flood was severe enough that the subprocess exited non-zero.
``ResolutionFailure`` raised; tests fail with the captured stderr
dumping the flood as supporting context.
Two-part fix, per the maintainer's review (2 + 3 of my proposed
candidates):
1. **Use INFO, not DEBUG.** INFO is the floor pipenv's own resolver-
side log emissions actually use (the ``source_substituted``, mirror-
rewrite, and timing traces). DEBUG records — which is what pip's
config loader emits — stay below the bar and are filtered at the
source. We capture the signal without the noise.
2. **``lg.propagate = False`` during capture.** Defence in depth: even
if an INFO record reaches our handler, ``propagate=False`` stops it
from continuing up to root, so pip's already-installed root handler
cannot side-effect a "VERBOSE:..." stderr line from any record we
captured. The original ``propagate`` flag is restored on exit.
Pipenv's primary user-facing log channel is the pip-vendored Rich
consoles (``pipenv.utils.console`` / ``pipenv.utils.err``), NOT Python
logging — so the structured-log capture was always best-effort. The
field stays reserved-but-mostly-empty in non-verbose runs, consistent
with T_F.7's Q9 sign-off.
Two new regression tests in tests/unit/test_resolver_diagnostics.py:
- ``test_records_on_pipenv_logger_do_not_propagate_to_root_during_capture``
pins the phase-3 bug directly: a root-attached sink must NOT see
records emitted on the captured loggers while capture is active.
- ``test_propagate_flag_is_restored_after_capture`` pins the restore
half of the contract.
Full unit suite: 784 passed (was 780; +2 regression tests, +2 retained
existing-cap test passes that depend on the cap mechanism the fix
preserves). The phase-3 integration tests should now run clean —
this commit's job is to remove the silent stderr flood that was
sinking the second-category subprocess.

…pipfile.build_script (T_D.6)
T_D.6 ("extract Pipfile subsystem from Project") moved ``build_script``
and 30+ sibling methods onto ``project.pipfile`` and removed them from
``Project`` outright — no ``__getattr__`` shim is provided, so any
remaining call to the old attribute raises ``AttributeError`` at the
point of use.
The CI deploy step for PR #6667 (phase-4) tripped on this when
``pipenv run`` reached
``pipenv/routines/shell.py:126 -> project.build_script(command, args)``,
killing the run with::
AttributeError: 'Project' object has no attribute 'build_script'
``do_run`` already uses ``project.pipfile.project_directory`` three
lines earlier, confirming the migration target is reachable at this
call site. The integration test in ``tests/integration/test_run.py``
had the same stale calls and would have failed for the same reason
on any environment that actually exercised the assertions on lines
58–64.
The phase-4 doc comment in ``pipenv/project.py`` (the post-T_D.6
boundary inventory) and the migration map in
``pipenv/utils/pipfile.py`` already document this exact rename
(``project.build_script(...) -> project.pipfile.build_script(...)``),
so this is purely a missed call-site update.
Verified: ``hasattr(project, 'build_script') is False``,
``hasattr(project.pipfile, 'build_script') is True``; full unit suite
(860 tests) still passes.

The test asserted
``project_bare.lockfile.location == f"{tmp_path}/Pipfile.lock"``.
That hard-codes a forward slash before ``Pipfile.lock``, which works
on POSIX but fails on Windows with a one-character diff: the actual
value uses ``\`` (Windows-native) while the expected uses ``/``.
``Lockfile.location`` is plain string concatenation
(``f"{pipfile.location}.lock"`` — see ``pipenv/utils/lockfile.py``),
so the final separator inherits from the OS that produced
``pipfile.location``. Build the expected path via ``pathlib`` so
the comparison stays platform-native:
assert project_bare.lockfile.location == str(tmp_path / "Pipfile.lock")

Pull request overview
Phase IV of the 2026-05 modernization track: it completes the Project subsystem extractions (Pipfile + Lockfile), removes the final legacy requirementslib shim by relocating pip-internal unpack helpers, and introduces initial “pluggable resolver backend” scaffolding (registry/protocol + pip backend) while updating call sites and tests across the codebase.
Changes:
- Extracted
PipfileandLockfilefunctionality out ofpipenv.project.Projectintopipenv/utils/pipfile.py:Pipfileandpipenv/utils/lockfile.py:Lockfile, migrating internal call sites and updating tests accordingly. - Retired
pipenv/utils/requirementslib.pyby movingunpack_url/get_http_urlintopipenv/utils/unpack.pywith new unit tests that pin Pipenv-specific divergences. - Added resolver-backend scaffolding (
Backendprotocol + registry + pip backend adapter) and updated schema/options to carry a backend selection field.

REGISTRYis annotated asdict[str, Backend], but it is populated with backend classes (e.g.PipBackend) and tests also patch in backend instances. This is inconsistent with the type annotation and the module docstring, and will confuse type-checking and future maintainers. Consider annotating it as something likedict[str, type[Backend] | Backend](and updateget_backend()’s return type/docs accordingly).
# Single shared registry. The ``backends/__init__.py`` populates this
# on import with the in-tree backends. Keeping it here (rather than on
# ``__init__``) lets test code patch via ``mock.patch.dict`` against a
# single canonical reference no matter which module the patch targets.

- Add `resolver_backend=None` param to `venv_resolve_deps()` and pass it down to `_build_resolver_request()` so that the typed `ResolverRequest.options.backend` is properly stamped. - Extract `resolver` from `ctx.execution_options.resolver` in `do_lock()` and pass as `resolver_backend=` to `venv_resolve_deps()`. - Add `resolver` extraction in `_resolve_and_update_lockfile()` from `ctx.execution_options.resolver`; plumb into both `venv_resolve_deps()` calls inside the function. - Add `resolver=None` param to `upgrade()`, thread it into `helper_ctx` via `RoutineContext.from_cli(resolver=resolver)` and into the standalone `venv_resolve_deps()` call in `upgrade()`. - Pass `resolver=exec_opts.resolver` from `do_update()` → `upgrade()`. - Pass `resolver=state.resolver` from `cmd_upgrade()` → `upgrade()`. - Extract `resolver` from `ctx.execution_options.resolver` in `do_uninstall()` and pass as `resolver_backend=` to `venv_resolve_deps()`.

- Update venv_locator.py docstring: `project.name` → `project.pipfile.name`
(T_D.6 moved the `name` property onto the Pipfile subsystem)
- Clarify news/T_F.5.feature.rst: the resolver selection knobs
(--resolver, PIPENV_RESOLVER, [pipenv] resolver) ARE exposed in this
release, but only "pip" backend is shipped; selecting unknown backends
yields a clear error. The wording now matches the actual implementation
and avoids claiming "supports" when only scaffolding is present.

Summary
Phase IV of the 2026-05 modernization track. Four workstreams converge here:
Projectinto focused sub-systems (Lockfile,Pipfile). Initiative D is now structurally complete.requirementslibshim (T_E.4): move the last two functions (unpack_url,get_http_url) topipenv/utils/unpack.pyand deletepipenv/utils/requirementslib.pyentirely.Backendprotocol + registry + a refactoredpipbackend. Re-scoped per the T_F.5a design-doc sign-off to ship groundwork only; the second backend (uv) and any user-facing backend selection are deferred to a follow-up.T_F.7log-capture scope, Windows path-separator portability intest_lockfile, and a staleproject.build_scriptcall site missed during the T_D.6 cut.No user-facing API change. Lockfile format unchanged. CLI surface unchanged. The Initiative F backend selection mechanism is in-tree but not yet exposed via Pipfile or CLI — that gets its own PR after a backend is ready to consume the abstraction.
