Overview
Updates
installation.rstto document a faster/smaller install path by installing CPU-onlytorch/torchvisionfrom PyTorch’s CPU wheel index beforevws-python-mock, avoiding the default large CUDA-enabled PyPI download.Adds equivalent
uvpyproject.tomlconfiguration for pinningtorchandtorchvisionto the CPU index, plus aPyTorchreference link.Written by Cursor Bugbot for commit 99fcbf8. This will update automatically on new commits. Configure here.
