News: ember-latest.js Updated (v163)



For those of you who, like me, link some of your apps and fiddles against ember-latest.js, it's important to be aware that it was updated again a few hours ago by @wagenet.

As I explained in a similar post last week, we can check the top two lines of the file for version/build info:
// Version: v1.0.pre-163-g876c358
// Last commit: 876c358 (2012-10-03 16:33:55 -0700)
Compared to the previous version (if you happen to have a copy around):
// Version: v1.0.pre-160-g7d62790
// Last commit: 7d62790 (2012-09-26 15:59:36 -0700)
Finally, a combined diff of changes between the two build SHAs:
https://github.com/emberjs/ember.js/compare/7d62790...876c358
The changes are minor and unlikely to affect noobs. wagenet updated the section in the ember.js README about building the API docs locally, and ebryn added code to remove observers before a rerender, which I don't full appreciate the significance of yet, having limited experience with observers and internal framework concerns such as view re-rendering.

I asked Peter about the reason for today's update:
"In theory, it's always supposed to track master. Sometimes we just get a behind."
If that holds true in the future, we might see ember-latest.js updated every few days, in which case posts like this will end up being kind of silly, and I'll stop making them.  :)
