Use major version compatible dependencies
Closed this issue · 1 comments

I believe this is a little detail but it would be better if the dependencies defined in the gemspec did not fix minor or patch versions, otherwise projects that include this gem will never be able to update these dependencies without a release even if they are compatible (semver)
Additional context
An example of this is now occurring with Faraday.
Gemspec
spec.add_dependency("faraday", "~> 2.7.10")
The last Faraday version is v2.7.11 and theres no breaking changes.

Hey! That's a very good call.
I'm okay with doing the same for the other gems (e.g. faraday-multipart).
Do you like to open a PR? Thanks!
