[edit] Overview

Update a recipe to a new version.

[edit] Usage

  NewVersion <package> <version> [ <url> ]

[edit] Options

• -h, --help - Shows this help.
• -v, --version - Show program version.
• -V, --verbose - Enable verbose mode.

[edit] Other considerations

Optimistically, it assumes only the version number has changed, and the compilation process is still identical. The generated recipe is better understood as a 'template' for the new version recipe.

[edit] Examples

  NewVersion Allegro 4.1.12

Note that NewVersion attempts to upgrade existing recipes to a distinctly new version. To create new recipes, use MakeRecipe. To make changes to an existing version of a recipe (effectively create a new revision), use EditRecipe.
