[swift-evolution] [swift-evolution-announce] [Review] SE-0145: Package Manager Version Pinning (Revised)

[Alexis]

Haven’t had a chance to catch up on the latest discussion, but I just saw that the Yarn developers posted an excellent piece on lockfiles this week:

https://yarnpkg.com/blog/2016/11/24/lockfiles-for-all <https://yarnpkg.com/blog/2016/11/24/lockfiles-for-all>

They argue lockfiles should be commited by libraries (but still ignored by applications). The essential point is that this makes it easier for developers of the library to maintain a coherent build of the library when dependencies ship a bug. The focus is particularly on new developers, who would otherwise lack a lockfile.
