Background

Thank you for adding the uv export command. It is a great feature. One improvement that would be helpful is to include an option to export the data to a file. For example, currently you can do this:

uv export > requirements.txt

However, it would be a nice feature to have an output flag. For example:

uv export --output requirements.txt
# or...
uv export -o requirements.txt

This is the same approach that poetry uses: https://python-poetry.org/docs/cli/#export

Why

Using > or >> requires the user to have more advanced shell knowledge. Having an output flag could be easier for users.
