Aah, yep, I missed in his reply that it would be a local repo on the
filesystem referenced as a URL in test-requirements.txt. Something
still needs to create that local repo, so for devs running tox
locally a little additional automation is needed. Sounds like that's
what his installer script callout would take care of.

Oh! That's useful. I wonder if we could leverage that in our CI to
tell tox where to find git repos we've pre-cloned for the job
without having to precreate an env and manually pip install into it.
