"""This script generates contents of the @pip repository.

This repository is just a way to have simple-to-write targets to specify in
BUILD files.  E.g. you can use @pip//numpy.

The pip package names are normalized:
- Letters are lowercased.
- Periods are replaced by underscores.
- Dashes are replaced by underscores.

We do this normalization because it produces predictable names. pip allows a
wide range of names to refer to the same package. That would be annoying to use
in BUILD files.
