I am on the same boat. I like uv for its speed and other niceties it brings and being a single tool to manage different things. But lockfile is not that big a deal. I never got Poetry as well. Tried it in a project once and the lockfile was a pain with the merges. I didn’t spend much time, so maybe I didn’t understand the tool and workflow or whatever, but pip and pip-tools were just fine working with requirements.txt.

Hey, just so you know, newer lockfiles are meant to fully replace old ones, you shouldn't bother with solving merge conflicts on these files, just accept all the new changes always.

What you SHOULD solve are conflicts in the packages/project file. Once solved, just create a new lockfile and replace the old one.

This applies to lockfiles on any project python or non-python.

Thank you for the tip. I don't run into them these days. The projects have matured and my area of work has shrinked, so changes to the dependencies are rare and my involvement in them is even rarer. But I will keep this mind for future.
