You probably need to install the dependencies. A common thing is to store dependencies inside requirements.txt and run "pip install -r requirements.txt" when you clone a project. To push dependencies into requirements.txt you use "pip freeze > requirements.txt". So, if you project uses PIL or six or whatever it will be added to that file and then you can pip install them with a single command. I hope I haven't missed your point.
