Update the version numbers of the snapshots

[akirak]

Emacs master has been bumped up. emacs-30 branch has been cut off, and do you update the emacs-release-snapshot input?

Thank you!

Does that mean emacs-release-snapshot should be 30.0.60 instead of 29.4.50 (with the corresponding url change in the preceding inputs)?

[purcell]

Hmm, not sure. Maybe not until Emacs 30 has actually been released? Unsure what's best tbh.

#134 was the start.

I might even suggest as an alternative something like emacs-release-snapshot, which would aim to always build the head of the highest-numbered release branch

According to this definition, it should point to emacs-30 branch, which can be done by updating the corresponding flake input. Sorry for not being clear.

Makes sense to me: at any given time there are two active branches in emacs.git which neatly map to emacs-snapshot and emacs-release-snapshot. Older branches like emacs-29 no longer receive updates except for emergency bugfixes, but those are meant to be rare and are soon released separately, as was the case for 29.3 and 29.4.

IOW, nix-emacs-ci currently skips from 29 to 31, and doesn't reflect the active development happening in 30. (I'm not implying there is any obligation to of course; just noting an observation.)

I have opened #291 to follow the definition.

Yes, makes sense, thanks! (I merged that PR.)
