Release process generate (bin distributed)

[avelino]

We need to start generating vim-bootstrap launch (binary), simplifies the process of generating rpm, dev and etc.

We can use the goreleaser by @caarlos0 (Help us in implementing 😄)

Hi there =D

[caarlos0]

well, let me know what you need =)

[avelino]

We need to create a generating release mechanism (make release by example), what do you propose?
The idea is to generate releases (documenting updates), will be distributed via release from Github[1].

I usually have a github personal token with repo access and add it to my CI (which is configured like this -> https://goreleaser.com/#continous_integration ) and then whenever I want to release I just push a tag and wait for the CI to do the work for me.

I've seen some people also tagging and running goreleaser locally, something like tag=v1.2.3 make release which does a git tag $tag && git push origin $tag && goreleaser --rm-dist or something like that...

I personally prefer the CI-working-for-me model though :)

FWIW I also have a small cli to do things like svu minor which will increase the minor and print the tag... so I could git tag $(svu minor) or whatever...

will polish it a little and make it public :)
