Error

[Priyanshu Garg]

Hi,

When I run  py -m pip install -e \path\to\your\local\clone\django\ to install the previously cloned copy of Django I get this error

 ERROR: \path\to\your\local\clone\django\ is not a valid editable requirement. It should either be a path to a local project or a VCS URL (beginning with bzr+http, bzr+https, bzr+ssh, bzr+sftp, bzr+ftp, bzr+lp, bzr+file, git+http, git+https, git+ssh, git+git, git+file, hg+file, hg+http, hg+https, hg+ssh, hg+static-http, svn+ssh, svn+http, svn+https, svn+svn, svn+file).

Please , help me I am new to open source

You need to replace "\path\to\your\local\clone\django\" with the actual
path to your clone of Django.

I guess whoever wrote whatever documentation you are following assumed
that would be obvious.

One might wonder why you are trying to install Django this way?

Kind regards,
