title: Best way to migrate dependancies from virtualenv to to another virtualenv
body: <p>I have a django project in a virtualenv, I'm trying to move to a new machine.</p>
  
  <p>On the new machine, can I just create a new virtualenv and copy/paste the lib folder from the old machine into the new one (inside the new virtualenv)?</p>
  
  <p>Or do I need to actually run the installation for each of the libraries?  The reason I'm asking is because I have modified several of the libraries I am using.  If I reinstalled all my dependancies on a new machine, first of all that would be really time consuming, and second, it wouldn't even run.</p>
  
  <p>I'm trying to figure out the best way to do this.  My main concern is the lib folder..</p>
