For current stable version, you can watch either: https://github.com/clojure/homebrew-tools/blob/master/Formula/clojure.rb (the actual formula) or https://github.com/clojure/brew-install/blob/1.10.1/stable.properties (the data file) > 2.

I sometimes release multiple per day even. People might occasionally need a prerelease version, don't know. I'm hoping not to make the gaps too large between stable versions. The goal of the prereleases is really tire kicking and feedback on imminent stuff, but don't I expect it to get too for off of stable. > It's also worth pointing out that the unstable versions we've already > released won't disappear, so if you're using them, feel free to continue. > If you want to ensure you stay on that version, be sure to specify it in > your image tag (e.g. in the FROM line of your Dockerfile). > > * Classpath bug re Clojure 1.10.1.645 when using Figwheel.Main > <https://groups.google.com/u/2/g/clojure/c/WI3ddZRK4Bg> > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
