Installation, composer, and the download via git #3346
Comments
@kghbln I'd like us to stop producing tarball downloads as it binds volunteer time and is tedious to make for any minor release. So, instead maybe above can provide a installation method for those that have issues with a pure Composer approach and is similar to what the wikibase extension promotes [0]. |
Well, starting with SMW 3.0.0 I will no longer do it anyways, also due to the fact that it no longer works with extension registration. Moreover I think that it does no longer make sense to run SMW on a machine without command line access. I think that we will have to be frank about this and at the same time not requiring a graduation in "nuclear science" to get things running on the sever unlike e.g. MW itself. |
We should add a note to the release notes about it. |
Indeed, I created an extra issue for this. |
