<br>Just discovered this issue when trying to build with my fork of spack at [<a href="https://github.com/s-sajid-ali/spack/commit/05e499571b428f37b8cd1c7d39013e3dec08e5c8">1</a>]. <br><br></div><div>So, ideally each developer has to have their develop point to the branch they want to build ? That would make communication a little confusing since spack's develop version is some package's master and now everyone wants a different develop so as to not let spack apply any patches for string version sorted lower than lowest numeric version. <br><br>>Even if you change commit from 'abc' to 'def'spack won't recognize this change and use the cached tarball.<br></div><div>True, but since checksum changes and the user has to constantly zip and unzip, I personally find git cloning easier to deal with so it's just a matter of preference. <br></div></div></div>
