App::Pinto::Command::pin - force a package to stay in a stack
version 0.045
pinto --root=REPOSITORY_ROOT pin [OPTIONS] TARGET ... pinto --root=REPOSITORY_ROOT pin [OPTIONS] < LIST_OF_TARGETS
This command pins a package so that it stays in the stack even if a newer version is subsequently mirrored, imported, or added to that stack. The pin is local to the stack and does not affect any other stacks.
A package must be in the stack before you can pin it. To bring a package into the stack, use the pull command. To remove the pin from a package, please see the unpin command.
Arguments are the targets you wish to unpin. Targets can be specified as packages or distributions, such as:
Some::Package Some::Other::Package AUTHOR/Some-Dist-1.2.tar.gz AUTHOR/Some-Other-Dist-1.3.zip
When pinning a distribution, all the packages in that distribution become pinned. Likewise when pinning a package, all its sister packages in the same distributon also become pinned.
You can also pipe arguments to this command over STDIN. In that case, blank lines and lines that look like comments (i.e. starting with "#" or ';') will be ignored.
Go through all the motions, but do not actually commit any changes to the repository. Use this option to see how operations would potentially impact the stack.
Pins the package on the stack with the given NAME. Defaults to the name of whichever stack is currently marked as the default stack. Use the stacks command to see the stacks in the repository.
