Question

It seems that sometimes when I pull from the git the old .pyc runs instead of the new pulled .py file is there a way to automatically clear the .pyc file so it runs always the fresh version ?

Answer 1

The old .pyc is automatically cleared by Python, provided the modified date on the .py file is newer.

You could manually delete all .pyc files in a directory structure with:

find . -name \*.pyc -delete

and Python will re-create them as modules are imported. You can also run:

python -m compileall .

to force a compilation.
