When building plutus-apps locally I encountered a difference between the document that was shared a few days ago and the first lecture of Plutus Pioneers.

The document says the following:

git checkout 41149926c108c71831cfe8d244c83b0ee4bf5c8a

In the first lecture of plutus pioneers we have the following:

git checkout 41149926c108c71831cfe8d244c83b0ee4bf5c8a

Should I build plutus-apps again with the commit version specified on the video or the version described in the documents is fine?

  • As I don't have enough reputation to comment yet, I'll post my comments here. In your question you have used the same commit number from both sources (document and video). I assume that's a typo. The commit listed in the video youtube.com/… (time 4:24) is 41149926c108c71831cfe8d244c83b0ee4bf5c8a and that matches what's in plutus-pioneer-program/cabal-project. What was the commit in the document (I can't determine which source you used)? Commented Jan 13, 2022 at 22:59

Each week there will be a new id/tag for the git checkout, as Plutus is under constant development. Use the one from the lecture this week, and then next week use the one from next week's lecture.

Here's a video which helps explain commits and checking out. I'm new to this stuff as well so it helped me understand a bit better.

I used git checkout 7f53f18dfc788bf6aa929f47d840efa1247e11fd and it worked. It's a bit more recent.

The commit in the lecture, which is the one in the cabal file of the first week code works fine and I would recommend using that to be in line with the lecturer.
