Referring to #562
Currently --install-option is passed to both setup.py install and setup.py develop calls.
But their interface (options available from setuptools) are different.
This would make more sense to me :
- pip has an option to pass
--install-option when setup.py install is called, but not setup.py develop.
- pip also has an option to pass
--develop-option that does the same as --install-option but for the cases where setup.py develop is called.
This way the user can pass different options in the same pip call.
