for some reason I only saw the `-patches` tarball and missed / ignored
the `-ss` one. I guess that'll work for me, thanks.

Then why don't use use the snapshots, which already contain a LATEST link ?
They're produced daily when there are changes, and they're even produced
for stable branches if that's of any interest.

[PATCH] SCRIPTS: Create -LATEST symlink for each BRANCH

[Tim Duesterhus]

Willy,

I wanted to add VTest tests to [haproxy-auth-request]. I'd like to test the
Lua script with various HAProxy branches and ideally run the test with the
latest patch version for each branch instead of hardcoding whatever was
recent when writing the tests.

This does not appear to be easily possible right now, because there is no
real machine readable way to obtain that information to the best of my
knowledge.

With this new symlinks I can simply download the -LATEST tarball and call
it a day.

The changes have *NOT* been tested. If you pick this change I'd appreciate
if you could create the necessary symlinks for HAProxy 1.8+.

This allows scripts, such as continous integration pipelines to easily grab
the latest patch version of a specific branch.
