We're gearing up for the first pip release of 2025, scheduled for mid to late January. Consequently, there has been a flurry of activity in the past week.
It's strange to see myself so much in the commit logs. I was given the commit bit in early December... and in a span of two months, I'm now merging the most PRs out of everyone. If everything's on fire when pip 25.0 comes out, you know who to blame! 😅

Upcoming changes wise, there isn't that much. IMO, the highlights are that package collection was further optimized, and TLS/proxy flags are respected while installing build dependencies. There were several removals scheduled for pip 25.0, but there wasn't enough time to finish them and ensure the migration would be smooth. Assuming everything's goes to plan (!) expect several removals in 25.1. This includes the removal of legacy setup.py based editable installs: https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/11457
