Only create new virtualenv when explicitly requested

See original GitHub issue

Currently I can’t find a way to turn on confirmation prompt before creating a new virtualenv. I often call pipenv shell from the wrong directory and stop it right away, cause it starts to create a new environment. Then I need to remove Pipfile by hand. This is not convenient. How about adding a confirmation prompt before creating a new venv for some commands like shell or run? Or maybe a --create flag?

i suggest you use other software if you’re unhappy with the way this software is designed

Well, you said that when I suggested months and months ago we should add an option to choose the python version precisely instead of just --tree/–two. You said ‘never’, and you changed your mind apparently. But I recall you were less rude at the time.

Actually I recall a humble kenneth I’ve watched at conferences talking about love and help, and offering explanation for rejection or requesting PR, not telling people to go to hell.

But maybe you’re having a bad day.
