Thanks for your contribution, I have left some review comments for you to check.

[YvesStraten]

Thank you very much for your comments, I'll check what's up with nix-update later

[YvesStraten]

I have tried, and I am very close, but unfortunately, without regex, unstableGitUpdater fails, with the regex, the name is replaced with a starting 0. If you could could help me with this that would be highly appreciated, thank you very much 🙏

@JohnRTitor shouldn't this be 0-unstable-x.x.x instead for Auto Updater work correctly?
Also, versioning schema was last used 4 years ago, but repo is still actively being maintained, so I think it should be redundant.

  passthru.updateScript = unstableGitUpdater {
    branch = "next";
    hardcodeZeroVersion = true;
  };

I also found this package: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/commits/master/pkgs/development/libraries/cegui/default.nix for the reference.

The last "released" tag is just vNext and the tag before that was 8.2. I do not think if it would be appropriate to hardcode "0" as the version prefix.

8.2 could work. And we could use tagConverter to convert the tag appropriately?

nixpkgs/pkgs/common-updater/unstable-updater.nix

Line 20 in ca4f0be

, tagConverter ? null # A command to convert more complex tag formats. It receives the git tag via stdin and should convert it into x.y.z format to stdout

[YvesStraten]

I don't know how to use it, but I will look into it

[YvesStraten]

Has been done @JohnRTitor, please review whether the commits are fine, thank you in advance
