use stable version of composer.phar #289

Closed fritzmg closed 8 years ago

fritzmg commented 8 years ago

The composer-client auto-downloads the composer.phar from https://getcomposer.org/composer.phar. Since the first stable version of composer has been released a few days ago, may be it would be better to switch the download to the stable version. Though I am not sure how always the most recent stable version could be obtained automatically.

Or, to bring back my point from #284, may be the composer-client should also release an update whenever an update to a newer composer version is necessary.

Currently I do not know any way of obtaining the latest available version of composer (aside from scraping the html of getcomposer.org/download). If you have any ideas, any PR is welcome.

fritzmg commented 8 years ago

Yeah, I have no good idea yet. But maybe it's best to now simply stick with a specific stable release?

Das composer selbstupdate bevorzugt stabile versionen, wenn ich mich nich irre.

Only in recent versions. Therefore you have a problem when upgrading from an old (unstable) Version. It will fetch the most recent build, which will later on prefer stable builds and therefore stick to itself AFAIR.
