Info: Chocolatey package #221

Open dhilgarth opened 9 years ago

dhilgarth commented 9 years ago

For the Windows folks in here, I created a Chocolatey package: https://chocolatey.org/packages/gitflow-avh

The source code is here: https://github.com/dhilgarth/chocolatey-packages/tree/master/manual/gitflow-avh.

Awesome. Never heard of Chocolatey before. Could you do a quick write up on how to install using Chocolatey?

dhilgarth commented 8 years ago

Sure. Once you have Chocolatey installed, start an elevated command prompt and execute:

cinst -y gitflow-avh --version 0.0.0

That's it :) It will also install the bash completion from https://github.com/petervanderdoes/git-flow-completion Through its package dependencies, it pulls down the required unix tool getopt and its dependencies.

Unfortunately, the package is not yet approved, because the Chocolatey folks are a bit behind on their moderation. That's why you explicitly need to specify the version.

That's actually something that bothers me a bit: This repository hasn't had a new release in over a year, so it doesn't really make sense to follow the releases here. Because doing so would mean that folks get an outdated version.

@dhilgarth I see that the chocolatey package hasn't been updated since 2015. Would it be possible to do this?

dhilgarth commented 4 years ago

I am no longer using chocolatey. You are free to fork my code and republish

IvoMerchiers commented 4 years ago

Alright, I might do that. Out of curiosity, is there any specific reason why you stopped using chocolatey?

dhilgarth commented 4 years ago

I just realized that I still went to the website and download the latest version instead of going through chocolatey. It just didn't match how I worked.
