[opam-devel] GitHub PR compiler switches now have their own remote

[Anil Madhavapeddy]

Dear all,

I would like to draw your attention to a rearrangement of the opam-repository to streamline the number of compiler variants that are available by default:
 
https://discuss.ocaml.org/t/opam-compiler-prs-are-migrating-to-their-own-remote/905

If you were using the "opam switch 4.06.0+pr944" functionality before, it will continue to work if you add this remote to your development environment:

    opam repo add ocaml-pr https://github.com/ocaml/ocaml-pr-repository.git

Removing this from the main opam repository in turn makes it far easier for us with preparations for the upcoming switch to simultaneously support opam1 and opam2-format repositories.  More on that later :)

regards,
Anil
