Release a tarball that includes submodules #53

Closed sjackman closed 6 years ago

sjackman commented 6 years ago

Consider adding a tarball to the releases page that includes the required submodules. As a bonus, though GitHub does not track clones, it does track downloads of assets like tarballs on the releases page, which can be useful analytics when reporting the impact of your tools.

rvaser commented 6 years ago

Done! Could you please tell me where exactly does GitHub track downloads of releases? I can't manage to find it anywhere.

sjackman commented 6 years ago

Thanks! GitHub does track Git clones, but only for the last two weeks, no historical data. See https://github.com/isovic/racon/graphs/traffic

Asset download counts can be accessed through the GitHub API:

curl https://api.github.com/repos/isovic/racon/releases | egrep -w '"name"|"download_count"'

See https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/releases/#list-releases-for-a-repository
