Once you have installed your dependencies, you can now run the same command and pass in --2 as the flag, which will switch back to composer version 2.

#! /bin/bash
composer self-update --2

Switching Composer Specific Version

You can also change to a specific version with the minor version number, like below.

#! /bin/bash
composer self-update 1.10.22
composer self-update 2.1.3

Revert Composer Version

To revert to the previous version, pass in the --rollback.

#! /bin/bash
composer self-update --rollback
