2026-01-09 12:35:21 +0100 <newmind> you can just `packages: path/to/your/package` in the cabal.project(.local), no need to publish anything

2026-01-09 12:28:56 +0100 <danza> although i did not understand whether `source-repository-package` works without publishing on some concurrent versioning system, but publishing on github is not a problem at the moment
2026-01-09 12:28:01 +0100 <danza> `source-repository-package` is neat! I was used to specify this via `packages` but was more awkward

2026-01-09 12:11:30 +0100 <danza> the doc you linked is for the `cabal.project` solution, right?
2026-01-09 12:09:40 +0100 <danza> thanks Leary
2026-01-09 12:09:11 +0100 <Leary> danza: It's plenty common. If you want to develope it together with the revdep, add it to `packages` in `cabal.project`. Otherwise you can make it a `source-repository-package`. See: https://cabal.readthedocs.io/en/stable/cabal-project-description-file.html

2026-01-09 12:02:04 +0100 <danz99375> i am surprised this is not a more common usecase. I don't want to clutter hackage with my silly personal packages

2026-01-09 12:01:18 +0100 <danz99375> hey all. What is the simplest way to depend on a local package with cabal? Pointers to docs appreciated
