Hi, I'm trying to install godot-nim, but this package requires nim version 0.18. I can't find this tag in the official nim repo. Can someone point me to latest "stable" 0.18 branch?

0.18 hasn't been released yet. Godot-nim appears to depend on devel (a.k.a v0.17.3 a.k.a the development version).

Easiest way to get devel is via choosenim

Thanks, devel works! Actually, I already did try devel but the output from nim --version for this branch was 0.17.3 and when I initially tried to install godot, nimble told me 0.18 was required. So I never bothered to try. But it works

I always use devel therefore i lose perspective of everything that has changed. Congratulations.

Leading version zeros smell of weakness. And real code warriors do regular release engineering, like OpenBSD.

I'd move the damn decimal point and call it version 18.xx. Release 19.xx next year.

He, and one day later 0.18 is released. Almost saved myself a couple of hours of wasted work. Anyway, congratulations to the Nim team, nice work!
