Hello Swift community,
The review of SE-0149 “ Package Manager Support for Top of Tree
development" begins now and runs through January 31, 2017. The proposal
is available here:
https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/proposals/0149-package-manager-top-of-tree.md
Reviews are an important part of the Swift evolution process. All
reviews should be sent to the swift-build-dev and swift-evolution
mailing lists at
https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-build-dev
https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-evolution
or, if you would like to keep your feedback private, directly to the
review manager. When replying, please try to keep the proposal link at
the top of the message:
https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/proposals/0149-package-manager-top-of-tree.md
What goes into a review?
The goal of the review process is to improve the proposal under review
through constructive criticism and, eventually, determine the direction
of Swift. When writing your review, here are some questions you might
want to answer in your review:
• What is your evaluation of the proposal?
+1. Currently I create the symlinks manually, but that runs into
issues; for example when trying to update a changed dependency graph.
I'm also interested in how SwiftPM would handle the situation that
Derrick Ho sketches.
• Is the problem being addressed significant enough to warrant a
change to Swift?
Yes.
• Does this proposal fit well with the feel and direction of Swift?
Yes.
• If you have used other languages or libraries with a similar
feature, how do you feel that this proposal compares to those?
Very similar to what pip (python) offers. It's a feature that I've used a lot.
• How much effort did you put into your review? A glance, a quick
reading, or an in-depth study?
Quick reading.
