But this is not the main point. Having archives called boost_1_63_0.tar.bz2 that are something completely different to boost 1.63.0 is just wrong. That should be self-evident. Putting "snapshot" in the name would avoid any confusion (and would not require generating a new name every day, which Rene has said would be difficult).
I'd like to echo this request to name CI builds differently. I help maintain Boost for Debian and recently I made the same mistake of downloading the wrong file from a sourceforge URL reflector because it was the same filename. I very nearly released a CI build into Debian. -Steve
