goreleaser github action

[arran4]

I saw your build script and I replaced it (via copy and paste from my other projects so there could be oversight sorry.) With a go-releaser version. It uses a build on tag strategy.

The output looks like this: https://github.com/arran4/triangle/releases/tag/v2.0.2

I'm getting the following error when I'm trying to build within your branch:

release failed after 0.03s error=git tag v2.0.0 was not made against commit c6ea05b53af40f095018ca5b2fcbf0b2340915b3

[arran4]

Where are you seeing that? When you try build it locally?

[arran4]

If so what flags are you using? If maybe use --snapshot as goreleaser expects that there are no uncommited changes and that if you don't put it in snapshot mode that the branch last commit matches the tag's commit.

Yes, I was trying to build it locally to check if it's working as expected. I was getting this error running the following command:

$ goreleaser release

Also deleted the Makefile as I broke it and this should replace it. However understandable if this should be added instead.

Reason I used build rather than release, is that release also pushes out to github and will expect a token to be provided. Github actions provide that token by default.

[esimov]

Using the --snapshot flag resolved the issue. I've checked the documentation and it seems that goreleaser require a matching tag prior publishing it.

I will play a little bit around and if I consider that it would be a better alternative over my custom script I will merge this PR.

Okay. I like how it produces RPMs and DEB files as it makes installation easy on my side. However I would rather have some sort of pipeline integrated with the deb system but not sure if that exists right now.
