Add GHC version tags #109

Open zliu41 opened 3 years ago

zliu41 commented 3 years ago

There doesn't seem to be an easy way to tell which commit should be used for which GHC version. It would be helpful to add some tags for that purpose.

In principle, you should be able to pass, e.g., --argstr version 8.10 to nix-shell to specify which GHC version is being built. IMHO we should try to maintain this for the last three major GHC versions.
