Modify verb dependency version #5

Closed lucasconstantino closed 9 years ago

lucasconstantino commented 9 years ago

Verb dependency is hugely out-dated, and the latest version match will download a version of verb which depends on repo-templates; a package no longer available at NPM. By modifying the semver specification for the verb dependency we can guarantee that we still use any new minor version of the library, thus avoiding this kind of unmatched dependency issues.

thanks but we can't do this since the API is completely different in newer versions of verb. I'll get this fixed

Thanks for the answer! I hope it's fixed soon. Anyway, following the SemVer specification shouldn't a version 0.8.x be backwards compatible with 0.2.x?

no, not until 1.0. under 1.0 minors can have breaking API changes
