Version the book according to PureScript version about purescript-book HOT 4 CLOSED

seems psc version matters too.

"set": "psc-0.13.2" will not work if psc-package version is 0.13.4

(In my first 30mins trying Purescript)

I don't think I've got enough time to keep tagged versions of the book, but we are upgrading to spago, which I think offers a solution to this problem. I'll have to think about it. Either way thanks for the feedback and thank you for highlighting this.

Yes. I just figure out that using spago init in the execise folder is enough

Version info can be found in any of the exercises/chapter*/packages.dhall files.
For example:

let upstream =
      https://github.com/purescript/package-sets/releases/download/psc-0.13.6-20200507/packages.dhall

Corresponds to compiler version 0.13.6.

These files should all be identical, since they are copied from scripts/packages.dhall whenever we bump the package set.

Tagging the repo may also be useful, but that's one more thing to worry about becoming out of sync. I'd welcome any PRs to automatically apply these tags based on packages.dhall contents during CI.
