But you would most likely want to clone the ArcGIS Pro’s Python environment so you can experiment without messing up the default one

Exporting an environment to a file¶¶

It is useful to export your environment to a environment.yml file and include it in your repository. This allows replicating the project in a different computer by you or someone else.

This creates the .yml file with version number and source repo for all your packages. Thus, this file is specific for a particular OS and Python build version.

To create an agnostic file, use

This strips out the version numbers, enabling you to upgrade to newer versions of the packages.
