Make a GitHub release

[Antônio Camargo]

I've been using zet for some time now and I wanted to add it to Conda and Homebrew, but they require the package to have a tar.gz release.

Thanks! I will look into that. It's not something I've done before, so I may take a while

[Antônio Camargo]

Thanks! In case you want to check, here's the official documentation for how to make a release.

[Yarrow]

Thanks! That helped a lot. I've made the release. I haven't included any binaries, though. Does a source-code-only release meet your need?

[Antônio Camargo]

Yes. That's exactly what I needed.

Thanks!

[Yarrow]

Excellent! I will close the issue.

[Antônio Camargo]

Well, Homebrew won't let me add the package because it's not "notable" enough (needs more starts, watchers, forks). I hope this gets popular with time!

[Yarrow]

Thanks! Now that I have proof that somebody other than me is using it, I'm intending to clean it up a bit and then announce its existence. (Cleaning up — currently it will break lines incorrectly for UTF-16, so it's not safe to use on Windows. I need to change that. Or at least tell people "Don't use on Windows!" ^_^)

[Antônio Camargo]

That's great! It seems that the project has gained some visibility too :)

[Yarrow]

I've updated Zet to handle UTF-16 correctly, and created a 0.2.0 release with binaries for Linux, Mac, and Windows. I've announced on users.rustlang.org and r/rust.

Just added it to Homebrew.

Just added it to Homebrew.

Excellent! Thank you!
