Revisions?
Do you mean that the result of  "cabal get Agda-2.6.4.1"
obtained today may differ from the result of this command done a month 
after?

For example, my Foo program is tested under Agda-2.6.4.1", where Agda is 
downloaded by "cabal get Agda-2.6.4.1".
And if I repeat  "cabal get Agda-2.6.4.1"  after a month, it may fail to 
install - because the source of
Agda-2.6.4.1/  for cabal is revised?

Am I missing something?
