Hello, i’ve been using ionic for a university project and by mistake i initially installed and developed my application with one of the nightly builds(because i exported it from Ionic Creator). I now need to either update my application from 1.2.4-nightly-1917 to a stable build without breaking anything major(since i have some new angular dependencies(angular-resource and angular-xml). Is there a way to install an old nightly build?

I’ve tried running ionic lib update inside www/lib/ionic which tells me it’s version 1.2.4 inside that folder but in the root, it’s still the nightly version. I’ve tried a bunch of stuff with bower and gulp but it hasn’t seemed to work properly.

Thanks in advance.
