A Manifest.toml records the Julia version that resolved it and pins
standard-library versions that only exist on that version. A
package shipping a pinned project needs that Julia version to
instantiate cleanly.
Value
The major and minor version as a string (e.g. "1.12"), or
NULL when there is no manifest or it records no version.
Details
A versioned manifest (Manifest-v1.12.toml, supported from Julia 1.11)
takes precedence over Manifest.toml on the Julia version it names.
When any exist, the highest-versioned one is read. If it records no
Julia version, its file name supplies one.
Examples
if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
manifest_julia_version(system.file("julia", package = "MyPkg"))
} # }
