Selecting a version of Laravel when installing with composer

Question

I have seen there is a new version of Laravel- 4.1 with new documentation in the laravel website. Few things have changed , really but i would like to continue using laravel version 4 for now. Is there any way i can do to install the version 4 and not 4.1 through composer? I'm asking that because version 4.1 is downloaded automatically whenever i run composer create-project laravel/laravel --pref destination in my terminal

You can specify version number after your destination

composer create-project laravel/laravel --prefer-dist 4.0

Composer documentation here

Even better if you add an asterisk after version number (4.2.*): the newest subversion will be installed e.g. 4.2.12 instead of 4.2.0

composer create-project laravel/laravel project-name --prefer-dist 4.2.*
