this fork has the same 'bundle identifier' as the original 'Clipy' #48

Open core-code opened 4 years ago

core-code commented 4 years ago

the 'bundle identifier' (CFBundleIdentifier entry in the Info.plist) file should probably be changed from the original value of the upstream project

1.) according to Apple's documentation each distinct app needs to have a unique bundle identifier. since the codebases have diverged, this fork is now a distinct app and should be distinguishable from the upstream project: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/information_property_list/cfbundleidentifier?language=objc

2.) 3rd party updaters like 'MacUpdater' are unable to distinguish this fork from the original project unless the bundle identifier is changed to something unique

a patch is attached
