Research direction

Start with the supplied pyproject.toml and reproduce the sequence of poetry update, changing pendulum from the git revision to ^2, and poetry install. Trace how the lock file records the dependency source and how install compares the installed package; done means poetry install does not update pendulum when the installed version already matches the lock file.
