We still have this issue https://github.com/JuliaLang/juliaup/pull/661 that is not yet resolved. So this is a braindump for now until that's done.
I don't really understand what the proposal actually is. What do you mean by "tracking"? I think this just needs more explanation of what you actually have in mind :)
Scenario
Some users use a custom depot path for Julia using the
JULIA_DEPOT
environmental variable.Rationale
Regardless of the reason,
juliaup
should track custom depot paths to allow flexible configuration and managing of julia versions on customized setups.Use cases
~/.julia/juliaup
and custom depots e.g.$JULIA_DEPOT/juliaup
as mentioned in https://github.com/JuliaLang/juliaup/issues/457HOME
directory is not desirable.
