Loosen dependency versions?
siwinski opened this issue · comments
Since this is basically just a meta-package, any chance the dependency versions 0.4.*
could be loosened to ^0.4
in composer.json
?
During DPC @clue and I discussed this and in the long run we rather deprecate and abandon this package in the long run as we prefer user to target individual packages directly. Also 0.4.*
is effectively the same as ^0.4
😉 .
@WyriHaximus Ok, that makes sense. Thanks. I will discontinue use of this meta-package.
Btw,
0.4.*
matches versions >= 0.4.0
and < 0.5.0
^0.4
matches versions >= 0.4.0
and < 1.0
[edit] As noted below, the version matching above is incorrect.
@siwinski No, as @WyriHaximus said, ^0.4
matches versions >= 0.4.0
and < 0.5.0
. See https://getcomposer.org/doc/articles/versions.md#caret-version-range-
@jsor @WyriHaximus Oh, wow. I'm so sorry. I have been treating that case wrong all this time :( I apologize.
No need to be sorry, took me some time too until i learned that pre-1.0 versions are treated differently with ^
. :)
