I recommend using atlas. It keeps all your library and dependency locally and
only update config files.
The way atlas works is that you define a root folder as the basis of the
workspace and put your dependencies / library on level below it. Atlas will
generate config file for you that update --path.
Installing dependencies globally is a source of bugs / mistakes IMO.
For example, if i wanted to modify on arraymancer in a new workspace i could do
:
mkdir DevWorkspace
cd DevWorkspace
atlas init
atlas use arraymancer
Run
It would clone Arraymancer and all its dependencies in your local workspace
folder. All the dependencies are git repository that you can modify locally.
You can inspect the nim.cfg files generated that way to see which --path
options is used.
