While we really appreciate your contribution, please follow the requirements: other developers will rely on your package. Non-compliant packages might be removed with no warning.
Your packages may be removed if the url stops working. It goes without saying
that your pull request will not be accepted unless you fill out all of the
above required fields correctly, the package that url
points to must also
contain a .nimble file, or else it will be rejected.
The requirements might change in future.
The version number in the directory is derived from git tags (not the version
field in the .nimble
script). To release a new version of a package, follow the instructions from the Nimble readme:
- Increment the version in your
.nimble
file.- Commit your changes.
- Tag your release, by for example running
git tag v0.2.0
