FYI: I submitted a package to the Scoop package manager for Windows.

This is more of a FYI than an issue. I wanted an easy way to install cmctl on Windows and keep it up to date, so I submitted a package manifest to the Scoop package manager's main bucket.

The PR is here: ScoopInstaller/Main#5711

If the PR is accepted, then installation on Windows becomes as easy as scoop install cmctl.

Maintaining such a Scoop package is easy. Bumping the version and hashes for a program like cmctl requires only a single command and a PR. Anyone can do it; I intend to do so if nobody else does.

Thanks for doing this @sharpjs, we use goreleaser to publish cmctl, so maybe it can be automated through that tool?

[sharpjs]

Quite possibly. I'm not familiar with Go tools at all, but I'd be happy to go though the process and distill it into a list of commands for an automation tool to do. For now, I understand the high-level process to be:

• Clone repo with package manifest.
• Run command to update download URL and hashes from SBOM file.
• Submit PR.

Edit: Looks like Scoop provides an auto-pr.ps1 (PowerShell) script to combine the bottom two steps.

Ok, no problem. We can probably start by doing it manually, this was the setup I was thinking about: https://goreleaser.com/customization/scoop/.
Not sure how valuable/ easy it is to set up.
