The README's install tip told projects to pin libtmux==0.50.* (and "0.50.*" in pyproject.toml), while the unreleased series is 0.63, so a reader copying it pinned a release thirteen minors old. The tip now shows how to print the installed version and pins that minor series as 0.N.*, so it stays true across releases. It keeps the reason: a pre-1.0 minor release can change the API.

  • docs(README) Pin a minor series without naming one

Checks: python -c 'import libtmux; print(libtmux.__version__)' prints 0.62.0 in this checkout, and the README no longer contains 0.50. The version numbers in MIGRATION and the deprecation notes in options.py are deliberate history and are unchanged.

Tool use: Claude Code made the change and opened this pull request at the maintainer's request.

docs(README) Pin a minor series without naming one
90a8744 
why: The install tip told projects to pin libtmux==0.50.*, while the
unreleased series is 0.63, so a reader copying it pinned a release
thirteen minors old. A version number in the README goes stale on every
minor release.

what:
- Show how to print the installed version, and pin its minor series as
  0.N.* in requirements.txt and pyproject.toml
- Say why: a pre-1.0 minor release can change the API
