Better version names

Open bjhomer opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

Tell us how we can improve Xcodes I'm proposing a prettier naming scheme for the various Xcode versions. I think it should still be unambiguous; it would just be a little easier to read at a glance.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Not related to a problem

What would you like to see? How would you like it to work? Currently, Xcode names are like this:

Xcode-14.1.0-Beta.3
Xcode-14.1.0-Release.Candidate
Xcode-14.1.0

I propose that they look like this instead:

Xcode 14.1.0 (Beta 3)
Xcode 14.1.0 (Release Candidate)
Xcode 14.1.0

This format should still be unambiguous; it just replaces all of the dashes with spaces and puts parentheses around the last section. But I find it much more pleasant to look at and easier to read.

Great suggestion!

or even Xcode 14.1.0 (RC)

I'd rather see an option to specify a naming format rather than forcing spaces. I have, in the past, run into scripts that break if a path contains spaces.
