How to suppress pip upgrade warning?

There is a known issue with pip where it will print that warning even if you have the version of pip that shipped with your OS. It is safe to get rid of the warning with this command:

mkdir -p $HOME/.config/pip
printf "[global]\ndisable-pip-version-check = True\n" \
  > $HOME/.config/pip/pip.conf
