Download links for HEAD?

Download links for HEAD?

[Martin Burnicki]

Hi,

I've recently started to use cgit, and there are a few projects on our
web page:
https://git.meinbergglobal.com/

Beside the possibility that users can clone the repos, I'd appreciate if
there was an easy way to download e.g. the current HEAD (or a specific
version ) as .zip or .tar.gz file, even if a version has no tag.

This would make it much easier for users that aren't familiar with git
to download the latest code.

For example, in this repo
https://git.meinbergglobal.com/example-code/gpsxmple.git/

I've explicitly assigned a tag 'gpsxmple-current' to the latest commit
to make sure download links are listed. But of course, after a future
commit the tag had to be deleted and assign to the new commit.

Is it not possible to download current HEAD as archive, or am I missing
something?

Thanks for any suggestions,


Martin

Checkout "snapshots" option in cgitrc manpage. You can have both .zip and .tar.gz. archives.

My cgitrc file already has a line

snapshots=tar.gz zip

and in fact, download links are available at the project page:
https://git.meinbergglobal.com/example-code/gpsxmple.git/

However, download links are ONLY available for versions that have a tag
assigned. My question was if it was possible to have a download link
e.g. for the current HEAD revision, even if NO tag has been assigned.

You also have download links at your commit page 
(https://git.meinbergglobal.com/example-code/gpsxmple.git/commit/):

https://git.meinbergglobal.com/example-code/gpsxmple.git/snapshot/gpsxmple-master.zip

https://git.meinbergglobal.com/example-code/gpsxmple.git/snapshot/gpsxmple-master.tar.gz

Ah, I wasn't aware of those links.

Thanks for your hint!
