Package for nightly build

[sanchosk]

I'd like to help with testing, however I am not experienced with building software.
It would be great if there was a link for package manager, like
http://arduino.esp8266.com/package_esp8266com_nightly.json
with overnight builds, so I can easily replace the current package with a new one and test old code.

Good idea. I'll add a scheduled build for that.

I added http://arduino.esp8266.com/staging/package_esp8266com_index.json as an additional source to my existing sources and installed 1.6.4-835-g77d77e8 using the Boards Manager. As a result, in $HOME/Library/Arduino15/packages/esp8266/hardware/esp8266 I had both 1.6.2/ and 1.6.4-835-g77d77e8/ - this was confusing the IDE to the point that it crashed immediately when starting the IDE. Removing 1.6.2/ solved this for me. Would be nice if this could work automatically.
(Please let me know if this must be filed upstream as an Arduino IDE bug instead.)

May you update the development board manager package ?

i updated this evening to the last development pachage whit your staging json link.
I confirm that in the C:\Users\win7\AppData\Roaming\arduino15\staging and \packages remain the old version. So the Ide do not know which one must use.
I must manually delete the old 1.6.4-835-g77d77e8 and leave only the last 1.6.5-804-g2d340c7

Package has been updated. If all goes well, will roll it out as stable later today.
