Request for a git-town in Scoop bucket extra

[Braunson]

Would be nice for Window users to have a Scoop (Homebrew Windows Alternative) for Git-Town.

i.e. placed in here.. https://github.com/lukesampson/scoop-extras

[kevgo]

I like the idea, thanks for the suggestion!

Would be nice indeed. Anyone an idea how to get this running on Windows at all?

[kevgo]

I haven't tried it, but do the manual installation instructions work for you on Windows?

[smeijer]

Unfortunately not. I get the following exception.

running git town from a random git project:

c:\dev\my-project (develop)
$ git town
E:\utils\git-town\src\git-town: line 3: /c/dev/my-project/helpers/helpers.sh: No such file or directory
E:\utils\git-town\src\git-town: line 29: man: command not found
fatal: 'town' appears to be a git command, but we were not
able to execute it. Maybe git-town is broken?

When running from git-town src directory:

$ git town
grep: invalid option -- o
Usage: grep [OPTION]... PATTERN [FILE]...
Try `grep --help' for more information.

Alternative to #763

We will get this for free with goreleaser, see #1379

@kevgo did you say from this that gorelease supports scoop being a destination of the gate? I couldn't tell from my quick scan of goreleaseer if was prebuilt for scoop already as a destination.

I think so but haven't tried it yet: https://goreleaser.com/customization/scoop
