Stop self hosting your binaries #31

If you are already using Github to host your source code STOP hosting your compiled binaries on in a different location. Gibhub has a /releases/ tab for each project. You are able to upload dmgs, zip files, pkgs, and even raw binary files if needed.

By keeping your compiled apps on Github you no longer have to deal with broken links, it is easier to find the "version" of your app. Plus we can see the source code related to each release.

It is super easy as well: just tag a git commit from there you are able to create a release.

Closing due to lack of current interest...It's still a problem but I don't see it enough to actually write a post.
