`pipenv install` does not detect dependencies in setup.cfg

pipenv, version 11.0.7

I have the following project:

• https://github.com/HearthSim/twitch-hdt-ebs/tree/7cb8315eb2740e520ac74b0dc93ab252a8199f69

I ran pipenv install at the root.

Now with most projects, pipenv detects requirements.txt. But before pipenv, I was using setup.cfg to define dependencies as it’s less icky than requirements.txt and I can do pip install ..

Expected result

pipenv should have detected the dependencies in setup.cfg install_requires

Actual result

An empty venv and pipfile were created.

$ pipenv install -e .

Not sure if this is cause to reopen the ticket, but @kennethreitz 's answer of pipenv install -e . only works for projects with a setup.py file.

I’d love to see support for setup.cfg declared dependencies in the same way.
