Summary of Changes

Hello @aignas, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request focuses on updating documentation to reflect a significant change in the pipstar feature's default behavior, making it enabled by default. It also enhances guidance on how users can customize Requires-Dist resolution. These changes are crucial for ensuring the project's documentation is accurate and ready for an upcoming release, providing users with up-to-date information on key functionalities.

Highlights

  • Default Feature Enablement: The RULES_PYTHON_ENABLE_PIPSTAR feature is now enabled by default, removing the need for users to explicitly set an environment variable to activate it.
  • Documentation Clarity: Documentation has been updated across several files to reflect the new default enablement of pipstar and to provide clearer guidance on customizing Requires-Dist resolution for dependencies.
