FileFerry

Releases

No tagged release yet

FileFerry has not cut a tagged release. Release automation is now configured for cargo-dist artifacts and crates.io publishing; build from source or install the cargo package while the signing story settles.

Release plan

  • Packaging is driven by cargo-dist.
  • Each tagged release ships SHA-256 checksums.
  • Crates publish in dependency order: ferry-core, ferry-tui, then ferry-cli.
  • Signing plan: use unsigned internal smoke artifacts only, then choose sigstore/cosign or minisign before a public release; platform code signing follows when justified.
  • Targets at launch: Linux x86_64 and aarch64 (gnu), macOS x86_64 and aarch64, Windows x86_64 MSVC.
  • Distribution plans exist for GitHub Releases, a Homebrew tap, AUR source/bin packages, Scoop, and Winget.
