in general we cannot simple use pip-compile to mage our requirements.txt.
we are not meant to cap or pin deps at the project level.
we use the requirement repos to manage global requirements for co installablity of services.

we may be able to use pip-compile in limited cases within tox by generating a tempory requirement file that we then use when creating the venv but we would have to be very carful to not break our current requirement manamgnet stragy so this might be a valid workaround for indivegual developers but we may or may not be able to adopt it in nova.
