title: How to get the required version of the Composer Plugin API?
body: <p>It is necessary to do the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>composer self-update
  composer global require "fxp/composer-asset-plugin:*"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But after executing the composer self-update, an error pops up:</p>
  
  <pre><code>The "hirak/prestissimo" plugin was skipped because it requires a Plugin API version ("~1.0.0-alpha10") that does not match your Composer installation ("1.1.0"). You may need to run composer update with the "--no-plugins" option.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My current version of Composer is 1.4.2
  For the same reason, the following commands do not work:</p>
  
  <pre><code>composer global require "fxp/composer-asset-plugin:*"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>An error pops up:</p>
