Making a release
To make it easier for distributions to package BuffyBox, we include source tarballs including the LVGL submodule in GitLab releases. See unl0kr#42 for more background on this.
Producing and uploading a source tarball requires git-archive-all to be installed as well as an access token for the GitLab API. To tag a release and upload a source tarball, run
./release.sh $VERSION $TOKENOnce the upload completes, create a new release on GitLab and attach the URL of the uploaded source tarball.
