At this stage what I’m considering is an additional large archive containing 
all externals so you can still download individual files. At the moment I scp a 
large archive over to my server and run a script on it to deploy everything 
into the right spot. It shouldn’t be overly complicated to extract each of the 
external archives and then archive the lot at the end of that script.

A version function is probably feasible (I need to be able to automate changing 
the version number from by external builder stack. It’s probably not something 
I’ll get to in the very short term though.

Cheers

I strongly disagree. I'd much rather have control and know exactly which 
version I'm using with each application. Admittedly in this case the changes 
may be mostly invisible tweaks to accomodate iOS differences, but stuff always 
needs testing, and there can easily be unexpected effects.


I'd much rather have to do a small amount of deliberate work upfront when I 
want to switch to a new version, than have to spend more time diagnosing 
mysterious behaviour when I did it without meaning to. That's especially going 
to happen to an app where I haven't done a new build in a while.


My feature request, on the contrary, would be for for Monte to add a standard 
"mergVersion" function to every external in the suite, so that we can always 
verify exactly what we've got (and so that app error reports, for example, can 
include this information by default).


My AUS$ 0.02,

2016-02-10 Thread Mike Kerner 
At least for me, I'd take just the blob - consider it a compromise for
getting a blob.  The version number could appear in an index, or release
notes, perhaps?  Otherwise we might have to do something to the Copy Files
feature in LC.  I understand there will be cases where someone will want to
get some sort of warning instead of just installing the latest and
greatest, so maybe the idea can/should be addressed via a different
mechanism.

I'll try and add it to my deployment script before the next rebuild for an SDK. 
I'm guessing you want the option of either one big blob or just the individual 
files. The version numbers are a bit tricker given that at present that is the 
only place a version number appears.

The other thing that would be nice would be to maybe have the new versions
not be marked with the version number.  I realize that can be dangerous,
but for every app, I have to go into Copy Files for every external and
point to the new one.  When I forget (especially if I haven't done a new
