update binary download

https://github.com/Code52/pretzel/downloads

The download over there seems to be outdated compared to the master.

Downloads has been obsoleted and replaed with Releases: https://github.com/blog/1547-release-your-software

But we don't use either at the moment. You can grab the latest bits from @JakeGinnivan's TeamCity server: http://teamcity.ginnivan.net/viewLog.html?buildId=5864&tab=artifacts&buildTypeId=bt52

I'll leave this open to see if we can't get proper releases documented and linked back on the site.

The teamcity link above is not a public link.

Also his wiki page should be updated to link to the latest location:

@markvantilburg just click the 'Login as guest' button

The teamcity link above is not a public link

Oops, fixed: http://teamcity.ginnivan.net/viewLog.html?buildId=5864&tab=artifacts&buildTypeId=bt52&guest=1

[JakeGinnivan]

But @shiftkey is right, we should fix the release. I think its at http://chocolatey.org/packages/pretzel too

[markvantilburg]

How about pushing a new version to chocolatey. The version there is outdated and even displays a security notice - might scare some people :)

[shiftkey]

I don't have rights to publish a new package - can you add me @JakeGinnivan or can I leave this with you?

[JakeGinnivan]

Pushed new package and added you as a maintainer @shiftkey

[shiftkey]

Thanks @JakeGinnivan

Would be great i fo use a CI server (like TeamCitiy or Appveyor) to create a new compiled version with every commit to master. Then automatically push the artifacts (compiled) to Github Releases http://www.appveyor.com/docs/deployment/github and Chocolatey

[shiftkey]

@laedit has been doing some improvements to the CI process (see #190 for example) - I've not seen anyone integrate GH Releases into an official TeamCity plugin though (prove me wrong!)

[ricardopolo]

@shiftkey @laedit If you want I can help with the CI process and pushing the artifacts using Appveyor (I dont have experience with TeamCity). I have worked in some projects where we compile a new Nuget version (for chocolatey in this case) with every commit

[laedit]

Since it was the build & deploy tool in place when I arrived I'd prefer to use Team City, but it doesn't play well with GitHub so I think to switch to AppVeyor.
@ricardopolo The aim here would be to tag the source, upload the binaries to GitHub and generate and push the package to Chocolatey. The last two are handled by AppVeyor but I think the first isn't. In any case you are welcome if you have any examples 😄

[JakeGinnivan]

Not sure if this is helpful for you guys https://github.com/dazinator/GithubReleaseCreator

[laedit]

Thanks but this part is handled directly by AppVeyor: http://www.appveyor.com/docs/deployment/github
But it require a tag on GitHub source that isn't handled.
I think that the new deploy workflow could be:

1. Tag the source manually on GitHub
2. AppVeyor will build & deploy to the newly created GitHub release and to Chocolatey

An alternative could be to call the GitHub API to create a release but I prefer a manual action to launch the deploy.
@shiftkey @JakeGinnivan What do you think?
