Should `experimental` releases be marked as a Pre-Release?

Open Botspot opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

Unciv is in the Pi-Apps store and whenever a new release comes out, we get notified by a GitHub Actions script to update the app. See this in action here: https://github.com/Botspot/pi-apps/pull/1977 The past few releases on this repo have included the word experimental, and I was wondering if these releases were intended to be production-ready for non-technical users. If you want Pi-Apps to avoid using these releases, then please mark them as a "Pre-Release". (GitHub has a handy checkbox for this)

Oh sweet! Thanks for that, we're still figuring out how we want to handle experimental releases ourselves, so we'll keep this in mind :) Do you have a preferred badge with which to link to you from the readme?

The main issue, which is having experimental releases, is not yet resolved

Non-version releases have been Github prereleases for a while now, forgot that this issue existed

Did you decide against adding our badge to the README?

Yes, now that we have 7 different distribution platforms, we've opted for the minimalistic vadges at the top of the readme for visual similarity and brevity
