How to install pcl older commit

[yes89929]

I`m trying to install pcl.

1. current commit of pcl has a issue about compatability with vtk 9.0.0. vcpkg install pcl:x64-windows, but visualization include not installed #include <pcl/visualization/pcl_visualizer.h> missing from pcl installed include #11601
   So I changed port of vtk, boost, and pcl from latest to before current issue by using "git checkout"

vtk:

2. vcpkg install pcl still try to install boost 1.7.3

3. vcpkg install boost

Computing installation plan...

Are there any solutions?

@yes89929 Thank you for posting this issue.
See #11758 but it is an enhancement in the works.
In the meantime I was given this example:

1. Use command .\vcpkg x-history qt5

2. Get the commit id of the version you need.

3. Use command git reset

4. Rebuild qt5.

I do a test with the zlib(The latest version of zlib in vcpkg is 1.2.11-6),
Vcpkg still build the latest version of module when I following the suggestion of @timautry timautry.

1. git reset 18b029a
2. .\vcpkg x-history zlib
   version date vcpkg commit
