New tag and release #4

Closed Liozou closed 4 years ago

Liozou commented 4 years ago

Would it be possible to tag and release the current version of Mods.jl? The last tag registered in the General repository is 0.1.0 (see https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/General/blob/master/M/Mods/Versions.toml), which is two years old and lacks the latest improvements (concrete types on parameters, overflow protection).

I just tried to do this but, frankly, I don't really understand how this works. I believe I have tagged a new version as 0.2.0. It may take a bit of time to do all the checks. Please let me know if it worked.

I must admit I don't know how this works myself, sorry... But the general procedure is explained here: https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/General/blob/master/README.md From what I understand, you just locally updated your Project.toml, so your package now has version 0.2.0. However, since you did not forward this update to the General registry, new users who do ] add Mods or Pkg.add("Mods") will receive the latest version of the package present in the General registry, which is still v0.1.0. There is also the Registrator.jl package that seems to automate the task of updating the version of your package on the General registry, but I don't know how it works either.

Anyway, in the meantime I can simply do ] add Mods#master to pull the latest version of Mods.jl, which is what I need at the moment.

I think it's working! I'm going to close this issue, but let me know if you think it's still broken.
