Hello Steve, Galaxy project's efforts in automating tool installations are mostly represented by the following Ansible playbook ( https://github.com/afgane/galaxy-tools-playbook) and a role ( https://github.com/galaxyproject/ansible-galaxy-tools). We plan on improving that tracked at: https://github.com/galaxyproject/galaxy/issues/1115
The install_tool_shed_repositories.py script should install the latest revision when no revision is specified (and owner and repo name is present). This feature was added on May 14, 2014 ( https://github.com/galaxyproject/galaxy/commit/2d5c37a73f90931e03291d5c4ad6057a0e41a712 ). Please let us know how it works for you. Thank you for using Galaxy.
