Hi,

My opinion is that when C changes, if you want A to get the new revision,
the two options are to declare a dependency from A to C (because A requires
a different revision from the one requested by B), which is not my preferred
choice, or publish a new version of B (which is my preferred solution).
Indeed if C has changed it's interesting to rebuild and republish B to make
sure the new version of C doesn't break B. Using a continuous integration
server for this purpose is a very good practice too IMHO.

HTH,

Xavier

Hi,

We have for instance 3 modules A, B, C where dependencies are : A->B->C.

I am working on module C while a team mate is working on A. As we do not
modify module B, when I release C, B kept previous revision of module C as
dependency and my team mate do not get the new release.

What I am going to do to avoid to publish B each time C changed is to put
a
dynamic revision 1.0.+ on C dependency in B while disabling replace
dynamic
revision in the publish task.

My concern about this method, I can't ask anymore for specific revision
and
break the concept of reproductible build. Can you advice ?

thx
