-
-Specifiers are padded with trailing zeros if required, so `foo ==2` matches foo 2.0.0, too.
-
-A star can be used for the last digit with equals, e.g. `foo ==2.1.*` will accept any release from
-the 2.1 series. Similarly, `~=` matches where the last digit is equal or higher, e.g., `foo ~=1.2`
-is equal to `foo >=1.2,<2`, and `foo ~=1.2.3` is equal to `foo >=1.2.3,<1.3`.

-Extras are comma-separated in square bracket between name and version, e.g.,
-`pandas[excel,plot] ==2.2`. Whitespace between extra names is ignored.
-
-Some dependencies are only required in specific environments, e.g., a specific Python version or
-operating system. For example to install the `importlib-metadata` backport for the
-`importlib.metadata` module, use `importlib-metadata >=7.1.0,<8; python_version < '3.10'`. To
-install `colorama` on Windows (but omit it on other platforms), use
-`colorama >=0.4.6,<5; platform_system == "Windows"`.
-
-Markers are combined with `and`, `or`, and parentheses, e.g.,
-`aiohttp >=3.7.4,<4; (sys_platform != 'win32' or implementation_name != 'pypy') and python_version >= '3.10'`.
-Note that versions within markers must be quoted, while versions _outside_ of markers must _not_ be
-quoted.
