Correct Dependabot Python package manager versions in docs tables (pipenv constraint + pip-compile)

[Copilot]

This updates the docs to align Python package manager versions with Dependabot’s current source of truth and corrects regressions from the prior update. Specifically, it restores the <= pipenv constraint and updates pip-compile where it was previously missed.

• dependabot-options-reference.md (package-ecosystem table)

  • Updated pip from v24.2 → 24.2
  • Updated pip-compile from 7.4.1 → 7.5.3
  • Preserved pipenv as <= 2024.4.1 (did not remove <=)
  • Updated poetry from v2 → 2.2.1
  • Left pnpm unchanged

• supported-package-managers.md (reusable package managers table)

  • Updated pip from v21.1.2 → 24.2
  • Updated pipenv from <= 2021-05-29 → <= 2024.4.1 (preserving <=)
  • Updated pip-compile from 6.1.0 → 7.5.3
  • Updated poetry from v1 → 2.2.1
  • Kept all non-version columns unchanged

• Example of corrected rows

  | pip         | `pip` | 24.2        |
  | pip-compile | `pip` | 7.5.3       |
  | pipenv      | `pip` | <= 2024.4.1 |
  | poetry      | `pip` | 2.2.1       |

Original prompt

Context

This is a corrective fix for PR #43699 which updates the dependabot Python package manager versions in the docs to match the actual source of truth at https://github.com/dependabot/dependabot-core/blob/main/python/helpers/requirements.txt

The source of truth (requirements.txt) contains:

pip==24.2
pip-tools==7.5.3
pipenv==2024.4.1
poetry==2.2.1

PR #43699 had two issues:

1. It accidentally removed the <= prefix from pipenv in dependabot-options-reference.md
2. It did not update pip-compile (which uses pip-tools) at all

Changes required

File 1: content/code-security/reference/supply-chain-security/dependabot-options-reference.md

In the package-ecosystem table (around lines 572-576 on main), update the following rows:

Current (on main):

| pip| `pip`            | v24.2          |
| pip-compile | `pip`            | 7.4.1            |
| pipenv         | `pip`            | <= 2024.4.1    |
| pnpm   | `npm`            | v7, v8 <br>v9, v10 (version updates only)    |
| poetry         | `pip`            | v2               |

Should become:

| pip         | `pip`            | 24.2             |
| pip-compile | `pip`            | 7.5.3            |
| pipenv      | `pip`            | <= 2024.4.1      |
| pnpm   | `npm`            | v7, v8 <br>v9, v10 (version updates only)    |
| poetry      | `pip`            | 2.2.1            |

Key points for this file:

• pip: Remove v prefix from version, change v24.2 to 24.2
• pip-compile: Update version from 7.4.1 to 7.5.3
• pipenv: KEEP the <= prefix. The version <= 2024.4.1 is already correct on main. Do NOT remove <=.
• poetry: Update from v2 to 2.2.1
• Do NOT change the pnpm row

File 2: data/reusables/dependabot/supported-package-managers.md

In the package managers table (around lines 41-45 on main), update the following rows:

Current (on main):

[pip](#pip-and-pip-compile) | `pip`            | v21.1.2          | ...
pipenv         | `pip`            | <= 2021-05-29    | ...
[pip-compile](#pip-and-pip-compile) | `pip`            | 6.1.0            | ...

and

poetry         | `pip`            | v1               | ...

Should become:

[pip](#pip-and-pip-compile) | `pip`            | 24.2             | ...
pipenv         | `pip`            | <= 2024.4.1      | ...
[pip-compile](#pip-and-pip-compile) | `pip`            | 7.5.3            | ...

and

poetry         | `pip`            | 2.2.1            | ...

Key points for this file:

• pip: Change v21.1.2 to 24.2
• pipenv: Change <= 2021-05-29 to <= 2024.4.1 (keep the <= prefix!)
• pip-compile: Change 6.1.0 to 7.5.3
• poetry: Change v1 to 2.2.1
• Do NOT change any other columns in these rows (the octicon check/x columns must stay the same)

Important notes

• The <= prefix on pipenv MUST be preserved in both files
• pip-compile must be updated in both files (this was missed in the original PR fix dependabot python package manager versions #43699)
• Only version numbers should change — do not alter any other table structure or content
• Fixes issue Outdated dependabot python package manager versions #43697

About GitHub Importer

If your source code is stored on another Git-based hosting service, you can move the code to GitHub.com using GitHub Importer.

About GitHub Importer

GitHub Importer is a tool that quickly imports Git repositories from other hosting services to GitHub.com.

To get started with GitHub Importer, see Importing a repository with GitHub Importer.

Capabilities and limitations of GitHub Importer

• GitHub Importer imports the source code and commit history of a repository. It does not import other associated data from the hosting service, such as issues and pull requests.
• GitHub Importer is only available on GitHub.com.
• During an import, you can authenticate with your remote repository. The repository must be accessible from the public internet. If the repository is hosted on a private network, GitHub Importer won't be able to access it.
• GitHub Importer does not support repositories that use version control systems other than Git, such as Mercurial, Subversion, or Team Foundation Version Control (TFVC). For more information about alternatives to GitHub Importer, see About source code imports using the command line.
• Repositories and individual files on GitHub are subject to size limits. For more information, see About large files on GitHub.
• GitHub Importer does not move Git Large File Storage (LFS) objects from the source repository to the target repository. If you use Git LFS, you will need to either convert the Git LFS objects to regular files tracked by Git before running the migration, or move the Git LFS objects to the new repository separately after running the migration.
