In particular I install most of my packages from source these days by cd'ing into the source and
$ pip install .
That's all it takes. Works with -e too.
yup -- plugged this into a conda recipe and it works fine. in fact, I'm going to try to do all of my python recipes that way. Actually: $PYTHON -m pip install ./ $PYTHON is the python in conda's current build environment -- this will assure it used the right pip. Thanks all, this is working great. -CHB

I can't seem to find a way to pip install from a source dir -- not a tarball.
Why would I want to do that?
In this case, it's because I'm trying to build conda packages for python packages that have compiled C code, and are not using setuptools.
On Windows, you need to use setuptools in order to use the "MS compiler for Python 2.7". So a straight "setup.py build" fails.
But pip injects setuptools, so that "pip install" does work. But conda has already unpacked the source distribution, so I'd like to point pip at

Do I have to build an sdist, and then point pip at that??
