Modified a file in WorkFlow and when tried to generate package.xml file, got following error:

Please install the latest force-dev-tool (master branch) using

$ npm install git+https://github.com/amtrack/force-dev-tool.git

I will publish a new release soonish.

A search for childNamed should have listed issue #97 for example.

It worked... Thank you.

In this case you are probably using a globally installed force-dev-tool.

So you would need to install the latest force-dev-tool globally as well (-g):

$ npm install -g git+https://github.com/amtrack/force-dev-tool.git
