Update version number and emacs package #13

Closed qfz closed 11 years ago

qfz commented 11 years ago

The scss-mode on marmalade is version 0.5 but doesn't contain the merge of pull request #9, I guess the version number hasn't been changed in the original source file?

Can you please update the version number if that's the case and update the emacs package as well?

Thanks

@fengz There are snapshot packages of scss-mode on Melpa: http://melpa.milkbox.net/ . I'm a Melpa maintainer, so I'm biased, but you might consider using Melpa instead of (or in addition to) Marmalade; we build ELPA packages directly from upstream source repos.

@fengz I also recommend using melpa or el-get which in turn could use melpa to keep your updated.

@purcell does melpa depend on version numbers in .el files to handle updates?

purcell commented 11 years ago

No, MELPA uses version control timestamps; the time stamp of a built package is the most recent modification timestamp of any of the files included in the package. The version numbers inside .el files are ignored. (Eventually we'd like to provide a parallel repository of stable packages, which would use version control tags and/or "Version:" headers to determine package versions.)

Nice, MELPA looks like the best repo out there.

Thanks; we like to think of MELPA as a server-side version of el-get -- all of the up-to-date goodness with no need to install bzr, hg, cvs etc. on client machines. :-)
