No More Dependency Conflicts With Hash Addresses
- Hashes eliminate traditional dependency conflicts because different versions are distinct hashes and can coexist.
- Unison's compiler treats different-version types as separate types, producing normal type errors when mixing them.
Remix Libraries By Publishing Selected Definitions
- Remix only the exact definitions you need rather than importing whole libraries to avoid pulling unnecessary code.
- Rúnar advises publishing a new library composed of selected hashes so downstream users get the same definitions directly.
Working With A Single Scratch Buffer And UCM
- Rúnar describes his typical Unison workflow: a codebase manager in one window and a single vim buffer as a scratch pad.
- He saves edits to the buffer which UCM (Unison Codebase Manager) ingests, pushes definitions into the codebase, and reloads edited definitions.
