Sorry, something went wrong.
Package each target as a tar.gz and publish all three to a release tagged "latest" on every push to main that passes the suite on Linux, macOS, and Windows. tar rather than zip on all three platforms because bsdtar has shipped with Windows since 10 1803, and because a tarball carries the executable bit that a bare binary served over HTTPS does not. The tag has to move to the commit that produced the binaries, and no gh invocation repoints an existing tag, so the release is deleted and recreated. That leaves a window with no release, which two rules narrow. cancel-in-progress is false, so a second push queues behind this job instead of killing it mid-window. The assets are counted before anything is deleted, so a missing artifact fails while the old release still stands. A tag can also outlive its release: deleting a release in the web UI leaves the tag, and so does a run that dies after the delete. Since "gh release create" ignores --target when the tag already exists, a leftover ref would publish these binaries under a release pointing at an older commit. It is removed explicitly rather than trusted to be absent.

releasejob that runs only onpushtomain, needscheckandbuild, and keeps only the newestlatestrelease..tar.gz(including Windows viabsdtar) to preserve the executable bit; asset names arecommentflow-<target>.tar.gz.latestrelease and tag so both point at the current commit; uses a concurrency group withcancel-in-progress: falseto avoid mid-window cancellation.ghAPI status checks to distinguish 200/404 from failures and explicitly removes a stalelatesttag if present.*.swpto.gitignore.Written for commit 6460822.
