title: Maintaining HTTP download link for Cocoapods Podspec source
body: <p>I have an iOS framework that I would like to distribute through Cocoapods and am currently writing a PodSpec file for this framework library. The PodSpec file will be using an <a href="https://guides.cocoapods.org/syntax/podspec.html#source" rel="nofollow">HTTP source</a> to download a zip file containing the framework similar to this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>spec.source = { :http =&gt; 'http://dev.wechatapp.com/download/sdk/WeChat_SDK_iOS_en.zip' }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>If I provide an http link to a zipped folder containing the SDK, will Cocoapods store a copy of the zip file in their service or does Cocoapods only hold the PodSpecs in their <a href="https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs" rel="nofollow">Specs repository</a> and provide the reference to the download link for every developer?</p>
  
  <p>For example, I upload v1 of my framework to:</p>
  
  <pre><code> http://somesource/library.zip
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and use this link as my source in the PodSpec file. Then I upload v2 of my framework to the same source:</p>
  
  <pre><code>http://somesource/library.zip
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>can I use the same http source in the PodSpec file or am I required to maintain two separate download links for v1 and v2 of my library?</p>
  
  <pre><code>v1:
  http://somesource/v1/library.zip
  
  v2:
  http://somesource/v2/library.zip
  </code></pre>
