Description of the Change
This change modifies the
getAtomAppName
function to use a looser regex for identifying the channel name of the current Atom version. This is necessary on macOS because we will now be calling the helper appAtom Dev Helper.app
during CI builds against Atom master.Alternate Designs
Could have added
dev
to the existing channel name regex, but this seemed more future-proof. Happy to go back to the old approach, though.Benefits
Less code changes to this function in the future?
Possible Drawbacks
What happens if a weird Atom build with a different version format comes along?
