el-get 2.1
Current el-get status is stable, ready for daily use and packed with extra features that make life easier. There are some more things we could do, as always, but they will be about smoothing things further.
Latest released version
el-get version
2.1
is available, with a boatload of features, including
autoloads support, byte-compiling in an external
clean room
Emacs instance,
custom support, lazy initialisation support (defering all
init functions to
eval-after-load
), and multi repositories
ELPA
support.
Version numbering
Version String are now inspired by how Emacs itself numbers its versions.
First is the major version number, then a dot, then the minor version
number. The minor version number is
0
when still developping the next major
version. So
3.0
is a developer release while
3.1
will be the next stable
release.
Please note that this versioning policy has been picked while backing
1.2~dev
, so
1.0
was a
stable release in fact. Ah, history.
