homebrew doesn't show correct version number

[jdx]

this was a known issue when doing the forego stuff, we don't get the version number in forego version. Any ideas on a quick way to resolve this?

I just put some new commits on master and will tag 0.13.0. You can now use a buidl command like this

godep go build -o forego -ldflags "-X main.Version 0.13.0 -X main.allowUpdate false"

[ddollar]

Made another tweak, 0.13.1

[jdx]

to be clear, you think this is the line we should update with that? https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/blob/master/Library/Formula/forego.rb#L39

[jdx]

or do you think we could move this into the Makefile?

[ddollar]

Perhaps we could move the version bit to the Makefile like this:

make VERSION=0.13.0

I'm not sure how to handle the allowUpdates bit but that will be very specific to homebrew.

[jdx]

you mean, in terms of not showing that command?

[ddollar]

AFAIK binaries in homebrew are not supposed to update themselves outside of the homebrew channel.
