Hello Swift community,
The Swift package manager core team met last week to discuss this proposal, and we ultimately *accepted* it relatively unchanged. I have amended the proposal to include more information on the alternatives discussed:
https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/proposals/0085-package-manager-command-name.md
We discussed at length the `spm` and `swiftpm` alternatives raised on this thread. In the end, we chose not to go that direction with the proposal for the reasons I included. We do recognized the desire for a shorter command, and view having an alias as something that can be added later if it proves to be the right thing to do.
Thanks!
- Daniel
