git_url is now a standalone field that can appear alongside any source
type. For githubsource packages, it adds a git clone entry per release
in addition to the tarball and zipball. Updated aliasman, duckdns.sh,
and serviceman configs.
Three distinct fetch/classify strategies:
- github: binary assets only, no source entries
- githubsource: tarball + zipball from GitHub releases API
- gittag: git clone + tag enumeration (existing)
GitHub binary packages (caddy, jq, shellcheck, etc.) no longer get
spurious .git and source tarball entries for old releases that had
no binary uploads. Source-installable packages (aliasman, duckdns.sh,
serviceman) now use github_source in releases.conf.
Source type is now inferred from the primary key:
github_repo = owner/repo (was source=github + owner + repo)
git_url = https://... (was source=gittag + url)
gitea_repo = owner/repo (was source=gitea + owner + repo)
hashicorp_product = name (was source=hashicorp + product)
One-off dist sources (nodedist, zigdist, etc.) keep the explicit
source= key since they're already one-liners.
Parser still accepts the old format via the default fallback branch.
New fetcher packages:
- chromedist: Chrome for Testing API (googlechromelabs.github.io)
- gpgdist: SourceForge RSS for GPG macOS
- mariadbdist: MariaDB downloads REST API
New releases.conf files for:
- GitHub: aliasman, awless, duckdns.sh, hugo-extended, kubens, rg, postgres
- gittag: vim-commentary, vim-zig
- gitea: pathman
- chromedist: chromedriver
- gpgdist: gpg
- mariadbdist: mariadb
- nodedist: node
Alias support (alias_of key):
- golang → go, dashd → dashcore, psql → postgres, zig.vim → vim-zig
- Aliases skip fetching and share cache with their target
Every package with a releases.js now has a releases.conf (except the
dead macos package). fetchraw dispatches to all 13 source types.
