Description

The work in https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/71904 is trying to reduce the number of calls the ansible-galaxy CLI needs to do in order to install a collection. One thing that is cached is the versions that are advertised by a collection through '{api}/collections/{namespace}/{name}/versions/'. While the cache will have a certain time to live the cli still needs a way to determine if the cached version list is up to date or not.

The current method is to check if the highest_version or updated_at field has changed but currently they only reflect if a higher version was published and not any version. For example if namespace.name was published at 1.1.0 at 7am and then 1.0.1 at 10am the updated_at field will still only show 7am due to 1.1.0 being a higher version. What I am hoping for is the updated_at field to show the timestamp at which the latest version was published, this case being 10am.
