macOS SolveSpace has the Help menu but it lacks the About menu item in it and instead the way to find the SolveSpace version is to go to SolveSpace > About SolveSpace. This PR updates the issue template to show that.
I have also replaced the `...` with an ellipsis (`…`) as it IMO looks better (can revert this if it doesn't match the menu item on Windows/Linux) and updated the example version to the current SolveSpace version.
Snapd stopped working in Docker containers in commit
c6011693a8
Therefore, we cannot use the current build action,
which relies on Docker to implement cross-compilation.
Switching to the upstream build action avoids the problem at the cost
of losing the arm64 builds on amd64 hardware.
Those need to be reintroduced by some other mechanism,
e.g. via Launchpad, in the future.
Fixes#1229
Re-creating the edge release for every push
to master creates many superfluous release notifications.
Stop creating those releases and provide users with direct
links to the workflow artifacts instead via the
nightly.link GitHub app (https://github.com/apps/nightly-link).
Fixes#1103
The snaps use git describe to determine
their grade (stable/devel). Fetch the tags to
make this possible.
Point users to the official release in the stable channel in README.md.
The if condition was nonsensical and did not serve any
practical purpose; removing it allows the succeeding jobs
to run in any case without additional code.
Allow the workflow to be cancelled without running all remaining jobs.
On invocation of the workflow, cancel concurrent runs of older commits
automatically.
Replace unmaintained release action with recommended alternative.
After much testing, I found that the problem of releases
being created as draft releases can be traced to a
consistency issue/race condition on GitHub's side.
Prevent this by inserting a generous delay between deleting and
re-creating the edge release.
Travis's move away from providing unlimited build time to OSS and its
inferior developer experience are the reason for this change.
The workflows are simple and straightforward, and the build scripts
are mostly 1:1 the same we used on Travis. This avoids vendor lock-in
as much as possible in case we need to move somewhere else in the future.
We introduce two workflows:
1. CD (cd.yml)
Runs on: Commits to master, GitHub releases.
Does: Run tests, build release assets, update GitHub edge release or
release to developer created GitHub release. Builds & uploads snaps to
the Snap Store.
2. Test (test.yml)
Runs on: Every commit except those on master and v* tagged ones.
I.e. PRs and other branches.
Does: Run tests only.
Creating a release is now an explicit operation. On the Travis workflow,
pushing a tag that begins with "v" will lead to the automatic creation of
an associated GitHub release.
On GHA, creating a GitHub release by hand will trigger the CD-workflow
to build & upload the release assets.
Other differences to Travis:
- Windows builds on Visual Studio 16 2019 instead of Visual Studio 15 2017.
- Snap builds run in docker containers, not directly on the build host.
- Snap arm64 builds on amd64 via QEMU user emulation.
This is slower than what Travis gave us and should be changed when/if
GHA offers ARM64 build runners.
- GHA retains build artifacts for 90 days by default.
