Enhancement: `--pin` (or some option) to change `latest` to actual current version numbers
Closed this issue · 2 comments
I really like this project. However, often when writing projects, I don't actually look up the current version number of a module and I just set it to latest. When I am ready to publish though, I change latest to the version number of the module that I have been writing and testing with.
I would like an option like --pin that changes all the latest values to their current version. I didn't find a way to do this currently with salita? If I haven't missed how it can be currently done, could an option like this be considered?
I really really discourage that approach. That means that, when writing projects, things might break out from under you. Best practice is to always, always, use some sort of version, ideally a range with ^.
Regardless, by default, * does get updated by salita - but latest does not. I'll make sure it treats "latest" and "*" the same.
That's great. I didn't think of having them treated the same or even trying *. I'll avoid that bad practise, thanks.
