Changing package dependency revisions (AWSCore/HTTP)

General Usage
1

I need to use AWSCore though a proxy. The current release of AWSCore (0.6.7) specifies compatibility with dependency HTTP version 0.8. The HTTP proxy functionality I need has been merged to master but has yet to be released.
Is there a sensible way that I can make AWSCore use the unreleased HTTP code on master?

Many thanks, Jade

Sure, you always have the option of using unregistered code.

The #branch syntax will track a dependency at some branch. In your case:

(someproject) pkg> add AWSCore HTTP#master

Once the new feature is realeased you can go back to tracking registered versions with free:

(someproject) pkg> free HTTP
