Release new version
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
https://github.com/mas-cli/mas/pull/496 was merged but no stable release contains the fix for mas outdated so tools like brew bundle still cannot rely on the output.
Describe the solution you'd like
A new mas release.
Describe alternatives you've considered Wait patiently.
Additional context See https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-bundle/pull/1308 for the homebrew-bundle PR blocked on a new release.
Thanks for the great work on this project, I personally rely on it and love it! ❤️
So ehm, I can't write a single line of Swift or Objective C, but if there's anything I can do to push this forward, I would be more than happy to. It seems the release PR is hanging on some jobs not having run, is it understood why that's not happening?
The project lead, @phatblat, has been sporadically working on betas for 1.8.7.
1.8.7 includes some fixes for mas itself, plus many updates to the build, testing, GitHub actions / workflows, and release scripts.
I'm now triaging & deduplicating existing PRs & issues, and I'm starting to work on some bug fixes.
Hopefully, @phatblat will return soon to finish 1.8.7, review & merge additional bug fixes, document all the release & admin procedures, prioritize outstanding issues, and decide amongst solutions for various issues.
Someone will update when people have gotten in touch & we all know more about the current & future status of mas.
It would be very nice to see a beta release of mas on Homebrew vs having to install --head. Beta fixes a number of important issues.
I think that getting a stable release out should be almost as easy as getting a beta release out. The build scripts, release scripts, etc., just need to be finished, reviewed & merged.
Sounds great! Note that Homebrew will only update to a stable release, not a beta one, in case that affects anything.
