AJ ONeal 23100394ac ref(installerconf): rename config keys and add full URL support
Renames:
- github_repo → github_releases (back-compat kept)
- github_source → github_sources (back-compat kept)
- gitea_repo → gitea_releases (back-compat kept)

New keys:
- gitea_sources, gitlab_releases, gitlab_sources

All keys now accept either owner/repo shorthand or full URLs:
- github_releases = sharkdp/bat
- github_releases = https://github.com/sharkdp/bat
- gitea_releases = https://git.rootprojects.org/root/pathman

Defaults: github → github.com, gitlab → gitlab.com.
Gitea has no default (self-hosted only).

Updated all 73 releases.conf files from github_repo to github_releases.

Archiver (arc) https://github.com/mholt/archiver Arc is a cross-platform, multi-format archive utility.

To update or switch versions, run webi arc@stable (or @v3.5, @beta, etc).

Files

These are the files / directories that are created and/or modified with this install:

~/.config/envman/PATH.env
~/.local/bin/arc

Cheat Sheet

Archiver (arc) is a powerful and flexible library meets an elegant CLI in this generic replacement for several platform-specific or format-specific archive utilities.

Much like MacOS Finder and Windows Explorer, the default behavior of arc is to create a top-level directory if one does not exist.

# arc ls <archive file>
arc ls   example.zip

Unarchive (whole)

# arc unarchive <archive file>
arc unarchive   example.zip

Extract (partial)

# arc extract <archive file> <archived path> <extracted path>
arc extract   example.zip    example/foo     ~/Downloads/foo

Archive (recursive)

# arc archive <archive file> <files or folders ...>
arc archive   example.zip    ./README.md ./bin ./src

Compress (single file)

# arc compress <single file> <format>
arc compress   ./example.tar xz

Decompress (single file)

# arc decompress <archive file>
arc decompress   ./example.tar.xz
