Wiggle is absolutely amazing, thank you #21

Thank you for developing such a great tool! It saved many hours of useless work for me, and will eventually save months and years!

jubalh commented 2 years ago

Thanks, but it looks like there hasn't been any commits for a year...

so?

dmikushin commented 2 years ago

So it just works very well - that's why maybe? One improvement could be to get it packaged for more Linux distros.

jubalh commented 2 years ago

I don't see what people complain about. Wiggle works as intended, so no new commits are done. Wiggle has no open pull request. Only unimportant "issues" open. It's also packaged for plenty of distros: https://repology.org/project/wiggle/versions

And adding a program to a distro is no concern for upstream.. it's the distro maintainers/packagers jobs.

This issue started as something nice. A person wanting to thank wiggle authors. Now it turns into a lot of nothing.

And When I ran brew install wiggle on my mac I got 1.2 installed, not the latest version which is v1.3.

Then complain at the homebrew issue tracker, or submit a patch to fix it. It doesn't belong here.

Thanks for the encouragement - I find it incredibly useful too!
