for unstable preview only
Well, it wad never published as the tag "latest", just with no tag. I didn't tag it because as far as I know, there are no standard tags, as well as tags cannot be deleted (so 5 months after 5.0 is released, the old 5.x previews would still be listed as the current unstable). |
Basically, what is the benefit? |
hi doug, |
Sure, but how will people know to do that? |
we can tell them? idk, npm does a similar thing. |
4.10.6 has the similar to https://github.com/LearnBoost/mongoose/wiki/Development-(unstable)-branch-details |
right... be we're already telling them to The biggest problem with this is you cannot delete tags on npm, so once i tag something as "unstable", something will always have to be tagged unstable in npm, even if we never have something unstable to publish for a year and people will just keep installing pre-5.0 stuff forever. |
when branch is in beta, you can use When branch is ready, just remove |
If we can come up with a tag and a good reason, I may use it, but we definitely don't need it in |
if you have aim to publish another 5.x preview
maybe can be useful, to publish it with
unstable
tag instead oflatest
