I have to do this everytime I have to deploy, which is similar to having to create a deb package everytime Nylas has to deploy.

There are no git dependencies in the process I describe above.

The pip drawback that is discussed in the post is of PyPi going down. In the process described above there is no PyPi dependency. Storing the .tar.gz package in a central location is similar to Nylas storing their deb package on S3.

Are you using a venv?

Nope.

If you did it would probably strengthen the isolation of your modules from conflicts, or say un-installation errors. Whether that's needed is up to you.
