  • Support has been added for binary Snapshots, meaning, you can download a specific version of a program by specifying one of the snapshots of it that can be seen in dbin info:

  • dbin's repo index file generator (modMetadata) has been optimized, I realized that we didn't need the ghcr_pkg field nor the ghcr_blob fields, as we could simply make the DownloadURL start with oci:// to signify that the binary is hosted it ghcr. This results in a much smaller index file, and much faster parsing. A 500ms improvement in my netbook. (this change is retro-compatible, you don't need to update dbin in order to be benefited)
  • Consistency; install.go, fetch.go & findurl.go now use the []binaryEntry type. This resulted in shorter, more efficient code.

NOTE: I don't quite agree with how upstream handles Snapshots, it is a bit inconsistent IMO. But it is a really useful and great feature.
NOTE: The Readme.md has been updated, be sure to check it out :)

Thanks for using my software! I hope it helps you in your day to day computer shenanigans!
