Has github removed the capability to name the tarball whatever I choose, or could I be doing something wrong? I have tried downloading tarballs from 4 unrelated repositories using: https://github.com/OWNER/%{name}/archive/%{commit0}.tar.gz#/%{name}-%{shortcommit0}.tar.gz https://github.com/OWNER/%{name}/archive/%{commit0}/%{name}-%{shortcommit0}.tar.gz https://github.com/OWNER/%{name}/archive/%{shortcommit0}/%{name}-%{shortcommit0}.tar.gz and even: https://github.com/OWNER/%{name}/archive/%{commit0}/foo.tar.gz but I always end up with a %{name}-%{commit0}.tar.gz tarball. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
