upgrading CI3 versions

Hello,

When changes occur in CI3, do I just use composer update to get latest?

no, codeigniter isn't installed by composer. if you wanna upgrade, you can get archived copy in codeigniter's website and replace your index, system and application/config files in your apps.
there are detailed instructions in codeigniter's user guide. please take your time to check it..

ok, thank you

There's nothing stopping you from installing or updating CI via Composer.

That is very true. Back in the day it was really easy to put

Code:

"codeigniter/framework": "dev-develop"

into the require section of composer.json. And run composer update from time to time.

However now, when we have 3.0 released, it is impossible to stick with stable 3.0 version like this:

Code:

"codeigniter/framework": "~3.0"

There are no any stable versions available on packagist for some reason.

Is it possible to set the versions on packagist as they are on github? It would be really convenient.
