Carthage: Specify the schemes to build.

[kgn]

I recently ran Carthage update and one of the frameworks I'm using added tvOS support and was causing the update to fail do to a code signing error. I've filed a bug for this to let them know, but the app I'm working on is iOS only so I don't care about the tvOS framework.

In anther issue I found there is a --platform argument that can be passed to update. Running carthage update --platform iOS works, but is there a way to specify in the Cartfile to only build the specified schemes?

i.e.

github "kgn/KGNUserInterface"

github "duemunk/Async" iOS

^ like the --platform argument this would cause only the iOS scheme to be built for duemunk/Async.

No, there isn't. Sorry. You can use --platform to filter out schemes, but that's it.

Is this something you'd be open to adding to the Cartfile spec? I think it would be really useful for frameworks that build for multiple platforms to save on update times and to avoid issues like this.

Or, probably better than per framework would be a way to specify the platform at the top of the Cartfile:

platform iOS

github "kgn/KGNUserInterface"

github "duemunk/Async"

356 is open to discuss that idea.
