* Change deb installation from crates.io to git
There have been a number of issues an PRs opened since
the cargo-deb installation does not work with the latest
version from crates.io.
To help out users until the crates.io version is updated,
the installation instructions have been temporarily
changed to install `cargo-deb` through github.
* Revert cargo-deb install back to use crates.io
Since `cargo-deb` has been updated on crates.io it is now
possible to just install it from crates.io and build Alacritty's
deb without having to rely on github.
* Update dependencies
This fixes an `illegal hardware instruction (core dumped)`
error when building in release mode.
* Remove redundant copy when selecting font_key
* Bump version number to 0.2.0
Since the Scrollback branch introduces some major changes, this bumps
the version number from 0.1.0 to 0.2.0.
The versions of Alacritty have not been updated regularly to this point,
so the scrollback branch is a good point in time to start updating
Alacritty's version on a regular basis.
Further changes to the readme, like dropping the 'alpha' status and
updating it to 'beta' could also be introduced with this branch. This
way there will be a clean cut which updates everything as soon as
scrollback is merged.
Building versions is another thing which would be a good thing to start
reasonably quickly. However starting this on the main branch after
scrollback has been merged seems like a more reliable way to move
forward.
This fixes#1240.
* Add a CHANGELOG file
A CHANGELOG file has been added to offer a bit more transparency over
which features have been changed, added and potentially removed in
Alacritty.
There are various formats available for the CHANGELOG file but the most
common and sensible one seems to be the one defined by
https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0. Following the template proposed by
this it should be possible to create a clear CHANGELOG which makes it
simple for new contributors to figure out exactly which formatting
should be used for it.
Since there have been quite a few changes to Alacritty already, not all
changes have been added to the changelog. However a few entries have
been ported just to give a bit of an example what the format should look
like. This also helps with the 0.2.0 version since it will not be
completely empty in the changelog.
This fixes#1534.
* Update CHANGELOG
This updates the CHANGELOG to include the changes introduced by
43882ade33.
I dug into this and narrowed the issue down to the macOS app bundle
Info.plist file. So, I spun up a native macOS app real quick and tested
it by launching the binary directly and launching it via the app bundle.
When launching from the command line directly, it created multiple
windows & instances of the app. However, when launching via the app
bundle it behaved as I normally expect a macOS app to behave, that is
when launched multiple times to simply focus the already existing window
and instance.
This informed me that it wasn't something in code as much as it was
something in the app bundle configuration. Hence, I reworked the
Info.plist file based on the one that was created by XCode when I made
the native macOS app and it started behaving as expected.
This seems to have broken the app by triggering a 'LSOpenWithUrls' error. However, I suspect this is why the path is not passed into the alacritty shell properly.
