Allow the version of Meteor to be set at run time #12

Closed liamfiddler closed 8 years ago

Adds the RELEASE environment variable which allows a user to specify which version of Meteor should be downloaded and installed, as opposed to always downloading the latest release.

Interesting, and thanks. Is there a use-case for this, though? It is my experience that, regardless of the Meteor tool installed, the application is run with the version of Meteor it is configured to use... the tool simply downloads the appropriate version.

No worries :-)

Correct, the build tool will download the the appropriate version of Meteor for the project. The use case for this is when the build tool itself receives breaking updates, like the ones listed at https://github.com/meteor/meteor/wiki/Breaking-changes-in-Meteor-1.2

Ah. I think I remember noticing hitting something like that, but I didn't look into the matter. Thanks!
