support of venv for calling meld from git clone
good day,
this is not an issue. let me describe the background.
currently i m developing a small git ui tool (https://github.com/kr-g/gitonic) which uses meld as the preferred diff tool.
sadly my linux distro package is still on version 3.20.4.
since i want to use the latest version i m running it now directly from a git clone - as proposed in the documentation. but with the difference that i m using a virtual environment.
because i find it cumbersome to repeat installing all tools manually i wrote a small script to automate this task. i guess that might be useful also for others.
i added also some code for windows platform but since i dont have windows at all - it is untested on windows - but hopefully it works...
the code is on my branch kr-g/meld/krg-venv -> setup_dev_venv.py
please do review and let me know your feedback. if you want to provide this also to others feel free to merge my branch (i can not create a merge request on this server due to lack of authorization).
regards, karl
