So:
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/zc.buildout/1.0.6#repeatable-buildouts-controlling-eggs-used
I just don't really follow this...
Is the 'versions' name in the [buildout] section meaningful to
buildout?
The versions option in the buildout section specifies the name of a
section containing version information.
what are the keys in a version section? just egg versions or
something else?
project names
fwiw, most of the time I seem to use an egg recipe or something
similar to lock specific egg versions. Having the release number in
the section name seems odd,
That was just an example. buildout doesn't care what the section name
is.
I'd expect something more like
[buildout]
versions = versions
[versions]
spam = 1
eggs = 2.2
That is a common pattern.
...and then just keep the versions stuff correct on different svn
branches/tags of the buildout.
What am I missing?
Nothing really. The example assumed you might want to keep multiple
sets of versions in the same buildout. That isn't a pattern that has
caught on though.
