OPAM Alpha Repository

This is an opam repository that contains packages compatible with the next release of the OCaml compiler. This repository is only meant to be used for testing purposes and contains non-upstreamed patches/branches.

To activate this repository in your current opam switch:

opam repo add alpha git+https://github.com/kit-ty-kate/opam-alpha-repository.git

This will add the alpha remote as a non-default extra source of opam packages.

Adding packages

To add an installed/pinned package:

./add-pkg.sh PACKAGE

Then modify the src field, remove the checksum and open a PR.

Side note on the OCaml Beta Repository

To be able to install beta or dev versions of the compiler you will have to activate the ocaml-beta-repository as well first.

For instance, to install OCaml 4.10.0beta1 and get access to opam-alpha-repository right off the bat:

opam switch create 4.10.0+beta1 --repo=default,beta=git+https://github.com/ocaml/ocaml-beta-repository.git,alpha=git+https://github.com/kit-ty-kate/opam-alpha-repository.git
