Document how to build from source #307

Closed wolfgang42 closed 8 years ago

wolfgang42 commented 9 years ago

Since there's no hosting for the binaries right now, I added documentation on how to build them from source.

Thanks for this. Do you think it makes sense to have build-package check out the appropriate tag before building?

I'm never sure how much effort to put into this kind of thing since all I can see is the nuget downloads, and no one ever really seems to complain about the lack of github downloads. Well, I complain about it but I can usually get it built from source.

A bunch of binaries are available here: http://squishit.apphb.com/Download But it is kind of painful to maintain (appharbor will not allow downloading files that are not actually included in the project). I should probably go through and build the last few versions and get them included.

It seems like adding tag checkout would just make things more difficult: you'd also want error handling if the working-directory is dirty, and it would be harder to build your own custom version not based on a tag.

I see that the appharbor download page goes up to 0.9.7--is this not the latest release?

I just pushed 0.9.8, that is the latest release

I added a reference to the AppHarbor page to the README, since I haven't seen it listed anywhere else.

I'm sorry thought I had merged this, doing it now :)
