# This script builds a publishable release-worthy version of exa.
# It gets the version number, builds exa using cargo, tests it, strips the
# binary, compresses it into a zip, then puts it in /vagrant so it’s
# accessible from the host machine.
#
# If you’re in the VM, you can run it using the ‘package-exa’ command.


# First, we need to get the version number to figure out what to call the zip.
# We do this by getting the first line from the Cargo.toml that matches
# /version/, removing its whitespace, and building a command out of it, so the
# shell executes something like `exa_version="0.8.0"`, which it understands as
# a variable definition. Hey, it’s not a hack if it works.
