Upload assets for releases

Pecans uses GitHub Releases and assets to serve the right file to the right user.

See GitHub guides: About Releases & Creating Releases.

Naming

Pecans uses some filename/extension conventions to serve the correct asset to a specific request:

The platform/OS will be detected from the filename:

• Windows: filename should contain win

• Mac/OS X: filename should contain mac or osx

• Linux: filename should contain linux

By default releases are tagged as 32-bits (except for OSX), but 64-bits will also be detected from filenames.

Filetype and usage will be detected from the extension:

Platform	Extensions (sorted by priority)
Windows	.exe, .nupkg, .zip
OS X	.dmg, .zip
Linux	.deb, .rpm, .zip
