Okay, maybe another one parsable file in root of library. Anyway I propose to discuss and declare a format and in the future to describe it as a standard for...

> don't want to implement it right now... I'm sure, that no implementation is needed now. Currently all new extra-fields in haxelib.json are ignoring and don't beaks the tool ([code](https://github.com/HaxeFoundation/haxelib/blob/master/src/haxelib/Data.hx#L275-L323))....

Agree & try to explain.. 1. We don't need to remove `.dev`-file anyway in that use-case; 2. Problem in the algorithm used in `list` command: - We have two files:...

I think it because wrong behaviour in the checking-existing-version-process: 1. [checkout if dev-version is existing](https://github.com/HaxeFoundation/haxelib/blob/development/src/haxelib/client/Main.hx#L865-L868) 2. but there no checking VCS-version, only `.dev`: [see code](https://github.com/HaxeFoundation/haxelib/blob/development/src/haxelib/client/Main.hx#L1004-L1005) `function getDev( dir ) return...
