Since the version 0.2.2 had some significant breakage which affects a
large number of users, this 0.2.3 release aims at providing a stable
release which works for everyone without any major regressions.
* 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.
There were some unneeded codeblocks and TODO/XXX comments in the code
that have been removed. All issues marked with TODO/XXX have either been
already resolved or tracking issues exist.
* Add manpage
Adds a basic manpage that was autogenerated with `help2man` and then
slightly adjusted with information from the README.md and better
formatting.
* Add zsh completions
Add completions for the zsh shell. These should be complete and even
allow completion of the command inside `--command` and `-e`.
* Add bash completions
The bash completions are almost on the same level as the zsh
completions. The only little thing the bash completions do not do is
complete inside of `--command` and `-e`, instead bash just stops
completion after these options.
* Update readme with manpage and completions
Added the install instructions for the manpage and completions to the
README.md.
Also tweaked the current readme a slight bit because the build section
was structured in a slightly confusing way.
