Technical question: Passing hash from patches array into package information for installer?
I'm using cweagans/composer-patches in combination with https://github.com/iwink/composer-global-installer. That installer changes the installpath to install packages in a global location per version.
But when one projects uses a patch it can overwrite the package of another project. To avoid that I'm looking for a way that the installer can check if a package has patches applied (preferably by a hash). But I'm not sure how to pass this information from a PRE_PACKAGE_INSTALL event to the installer.
If somehow cweagans/composer-patches can make that information available to the installer I can install a package under /vendorname/packagename/packageversion/patcheshash and each package could get installed separately.
@cweagans do you have any ideas on how that information could be made available to installers?
