fix(deps): rerun providers when mise recreates the venv by halms · Pull Request #14532 · jdx/mise

halms · 2026-10-16T13:07:05Z

With python.uv_venv_auto = "create|source" (or _.python.venv = { create = true }), deleting .venv left the uv, pip and poetry deps providers fresh once mise recreated the venv in a later process, such as shell activation or mise env. uv sync never ran, so the new venv stayed empty, and [deps.uv] auto = true did not catch it either.

[settings]
python.uv_venv_auto = "create|source"

[deps.uv]
auto = true

$ rm -rf .venv
$ mise env >/dev/null   # recreates an empty .venv
$ mise deps install uv --explain

Before: Status: fresh (outputs are up to date), and mise x -- python -c 'import six' fails with ModuleNotFoundError.
After: Status: stale (output created since the last run), and mise x runs uv sync first.

The marker for a venv that mise created lived in memory (#7770), so only the process that created the venv saw it. It is now a file under $MISE_STATE_DIR/deps/stale-outputs/ holding a generation. Each provider that tracks the venv records the generation it ran against in its deps state, and stays stale until it has run against the current one. With status.show_deps_stale on, shell activation now warns after it creates a venv, until deps runs.

Tradeoffs: markers are never deleted, one small file per venv path mise has created. After a manual uv sync, the next mise deps reruns the provider once.

Validation

Locally: the e2e test test_deps_venv_created_by_mise passes. It covers a venv recreated in a later process, and two providers sharing it that run separately.
CI: the build, lint and e2e jobs pass, and so do the Windows unit, lint and e2e jobs.

Summary by CodeRabbit

Bug Fixes
- Dependency freshness now remains accurate across separate mise runs. When a Python virtual environment is recreated, providers that track it stay stale until they run again.
- Stale dependency output is reported as created since the last dependency run, clarifying when it needs to be refreshed.
Documentation
- Updated freshness guidance to explain how automatically created Python virtual environments affect tracked providers and when those providers are considered up to date.

📝 Walkthrough

Dependency output staleness now persists across mise processes through marker files in the state directory. Provider state records marker generations after successful runs. Freshness checks compare current and recorded generations. Documentation and an end-to-end test cover mise-created virtual environments.

Changes: Dependency freshness

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Create persistent stale-output markers `src/config/env_directive/venv.rs`, `src/deps/mod.rs`	Venv creation locks the venv path before creation and marks the output stale. mise writes marker generations to files in the deps state directory.
Record and compare provider generations `src/deps/state.rs`, `src/deps/engine.rs`	Successful provider runs store captured output generations in state. Freshness checks compare current generations with recorded generations and report outputs created since the last run as stale.
Document and test cross-process freshness `docs/dev-tools/deps.md`, `e2e/cli/test_deps_venv_created_by_mise`	The documentation describes the freshness rule for mise-created virtual environments. The test checks stale detection and recovery after mise recreates the environment.

record the marker generation before the provider runs, then remove the marker
only if that same generation is still present afterward. Synchronize the

With python.uv_venv_auto = "create|source", deleting .venv and letting mise recreate it (for example from mise env or shell activation) left the uv provider fresh, so uv sync never ran and the new venv stayed empty. The marker that a venv was created by mise lived only in memory and was lost when that process exited. Write it as a file under $MISE_STATE_DIR/deps/stale-outputs with a generation, and keep each provider tracking the venv stale until it has run against that generation. This covers the pip and poetry providers too.
