How to use Git Action

It requires 2 secrets: QBIT_VERSION and LT_VERSION. You can find the tag in qBittorrent release and Libtorrent release. First of all, fork this repo, and create your secrets. After secrets created, you can click "Run workflow" to build your binary.

It should take about half an hour to build amd64 binary. arm64 and armhf require defiantly a much longer time.
