You cannot get rid of branching, this is a central part of version control and extensively used in many large projects. In Seaside we use the following pattern, also see the documentation at http://code.google.com/p/seaside/wiki/PackageNaming: Package = PackageName "-" Author { "." Branch } "." Version However I noticed that other projects (and earlier versions of Seaside) use a different scheme: Package = PackageName { "." Branch } "-" Author "." Version In this case I guess we must support: Package = PackageName { "." Branch } "-" Author { "." Branch } "." Version However, that doesn't change that $. and $- cannot be part of the PackageName or Author. Lukas -- Lukas Renggli www.lukas-renggli.ch
