Auto Updating Cask #2774
-
|
Hello, I'm a little confused by the purpose of LiveChecks. It indeed checks for the latest version but doesn't appear to actually help users get the latest version. Are they simply to avoid someone submitting a formula/casks for an old version? More to the point... I'm maintaining a cask that produces weekly releases. Is there any way to avoid my having to PR an update of the cask every week? Thanks! |
