> Since Julia 1.11 (I believe), if you have a file named `Manifest-vX.Y.toml` then it will preferentially be used by Julia vX.Y over `Manifest.toml`

That support has also been backported to the [soon to be released](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/julia-1-10-8-testing-period/124754) v1.10.8, so `Manifest-v1.10.toml` will work from 1.10.8 onwards.
