title bar of docs displays incorrect version

See original GitHub issue

What happened: The browser title bar displays an incorrect version when viewing the docs online. See below - title bar says 0.15.1 but actual version in URL is 0.16.0. docs-snapshot

http://xarray.pydata.org/en/stable/ also displays 0.15.1 in the title bar, but I guess is actually showing 0.16.0 docs (?), which is confusing!

to fix that, we’d need to install the project using pip, but RTD uses --upgrade --upgrade-strategy eager without --no-deps which means we wouldn’t be able to use version pinning. So I guess we have to wait on RTD?

they don’t want to add --no-deps to the install command (see https://github.com/readthedocs/readthedocs.org/issues/7345#issuecomment-675587158), but we can work around that by appending

  - pip
  - pip:
    # path to the folder containing setup.py relative to the environment file
    # if I understand it correctly, this feature is only available when using editable installs
    - -e ../..

to our environment file (not sure if there’s documentation about this, but there’s an example file). Something similar should also work with requirements files.

I’ll send in a PR.
