Lack of release tag #29

Closed marcinant closed 11 years ago

marcinant commented 11 years ago

Could you please add release tag with current version to this repo?

This could enable downloading *.tar from https://github.com/skeeto/skewer-mode/releases URL.

skeeto commented 11 years ago

I just tagged all of the commits where I incremented the version number. So here's the latest:

https://github.com/skeeto/skewer-mode/archive/1.5.2.tar.gz

Does that cover what you need? Just for my own curiosity, what kind of system are you building on top this? Is it another Emacs package management system?

marcinant commented 11 years ago

No, just deb package.

I use watch file and uscan to discover new releases. It is easy to use while repository is tagged and there is download url, but not so easy while repo is just git url.

I know that there are melpas, marmelades, elgets etc. but I really like just pure debian repository and ability to install packages with all required external dependencies that are not available to install from these Emacs based package systems.

Unfortunately currently debian/ubuntu repository is just a disaster. So, I had to start it from scratch.

Anyway thanks for tagging.
