Eventually, we should move the binary files youtube-dl and youtube-dl.exe into the gh-pages or a dedicated release branch (I prefer the former).

We should also check the integrity of the downloaded file upon updating, with at least a checksum (and if possible, a signature).

Can this be extended to every file that can be generated from a script. For example the bash_completion and the LATEST_VERSION file ?

You can maybe use the download page instead of putting it in the repo. There seems to be an api for this http://developer.github.com/v3/repos/downloads/#create-a-new-download-part-1-create-the-resource so it should be easy to deploy to the download with the makefile.

Done, with the new release system.
