Print GHC version instead of stack version #219
Conversation
Why showing ghc version is more helpful ? |
The version of the build tool is not as interesting. For example, if I am using ruby I don't need to see what version of rake I am using. I want to see the ruby version. Or if I am using java I don't want to see the version of maven or gradle. I want to see the java version. For the same reason I find the GHC version more interesting than the stack version. |
@rteabeault Stack is released with a particular version of ghc. Using the stack version a user can get the version of both stack and ghc. |
@hariprasadkulkarni Stack is not pinned to a version of GHC. The version of stack does not indicate what version of GHC I am using for any given project. |
OK. I'm fine with GHC then. But please change the README too. And this still needs stack to be installed to show the GHC version. |

Thanks for contributing! |
I think it would be more interesting to see the GHC version as opposed to the stack version for haskell projects.
