Support for linux/armv7

[wginolas]

Hi,

I am trying to install chezmoi on my Raspberry Pi and I get this message:

$ curl -sfL https://git.io/chezmoi | sh
twpayne/chezmoi crit platform linux/armv7 is not supported.  Make sure this script is up-to-date and file request at https://github.com/twpayne/chezmoi/issues/new

Oops, sorry about that. The v1.7.10 arm build for linux should work on the Raspberry Pi. I think the bug here is in godownloader, but I need to do more investigation.

Oops again, it turns out that #543 was not the correct fix. The underlying status is:

• chezmoi has builds for linux/arm6 which work on the Raspberry Pi.
• chezmoi's install script is generated by godownloader which currently does not differentiate between arm versions.
• godownloader is currently unmaintained, so any fix will take a bit of time.

I've reverted the incorrect fix from #543 in #565. linux/arm7 uses can still use the arm builds (which target arm6), but will need to do a manual install. I'll update the installation instructions to reflect this.

In the meantime, I'll re-open this bug as it's not fixed.

The arm build works on Raspberry PI:

mkdir chezmoi
cd chezmoi
wget https://github.com/twpayne/chezmoi/releases/download/v1.8.3/chezmoi_1.8.3_linux_arm.tar.gz
tar -xvf chezmoi_1.8.3_linux_arm.tar.gz
./chezmoi ...

I think this issue is now fixed: curl -fsSL https://git.io/chezmoi | sh installs a working binary on my Raspberry Pi 3 & 4. It's possible that it doesn't work on RPis 1 & 2 though, but I no longer have a mine to test on. Please re-open this issue if this is not fixed for you. Thanks for reporting this :)
