[ty] Improve Python environment path documentation#23256
Merged
Conversation
The `--python` CLI option and `environment.python` config option accept several path formats, but the documentation didn't clearly enumerate them. Clarify that the option accepts virtual environment directories, Python interpreter paths, and `sys.prefix` directories, and note that `bin/` directories are not accepted. https://claude.ai/code/session_012tsGWEbvFr15ND2PGXAyvf
