Please make a release on github #4

Closed jasjuang closed 7 years ago

jasjuang commented 7 years ago

Is it possible to make a release on github? It will make integration to vcpkg a lot smoother. Thanks!

tdaede commented 7 years ago

Is just a tag fine, or do you want a downloadable release? If the latter, it would just be a copy of the latest archives in https://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/xiph/releases/theora/

We do tags for all of the other xiph projects (so I'd definitely want to add them back to theora) but not releases at the moment.

jasjuang commented 7 years ago

Tag will work. As long as there is something when I type git describe --tags it will be helpful

rillian commented 7 years ago

It looks like we don't have tags in the git repo. Someone would have to go through the svn tags and create new ones. I meant to do this but looks like I never got around to it?

Can you not package the official tarballs? That would be more appropriate anyway.

jasjuang commented 7 years ago

That's a little bit outdated, and the current master contains performance improvements and bugfixes (also MSVC-specific)

rillian commented 7 years ago

I see, you actually want to package straight out of git. Ok.

I added v1.1.0 and v1.1.1 tags, but they're not ancestors of the master branch, so that doesn't help with git describe --tags. I'll try to find the 1.2 alpha release and tag that as well.

rillian commented 7 years ago

Hopefully this will work for you. If not, please re-open.

$ git describe --tags --dirty
v1.2.0alpha1-129-gfa5707d

I actually prefer the official tarballs, is there any chance they could be updated (e.g. an 1.2.0 release), too?
