Change Log

All notable changes to this project are documented in this file.

2.3.1 - 2015-02-03

Changed

  • Architecture detection now uses the %ProgramFiles(x86)% environment variable to determine whether Windows is 32-bit or 64-bit capable. This should also fix a problem where just-install failed to start on 32-bit platforms.
  • The ${version} variable is now expanded also during shim creation.

2.3.0 - 2014-12-07

Added

  • A new testing infrastructure now ensures that all installers are still reachable after each commit.

Changed

  • Prompt users to upgrade in case the registry file format has changed in a non-backward-compatible way.
  • Shim executables are now created using exeproxy, which replaces the old "mklink" way. You may want to refresh the shims by calling "just-install -s [pkg...]"

2.2.0 - 2014-09-21

Added

  • Added a new extension registry option to specify a custom extension to be appendend to downloaded files.
  • The %ProgramFiles% and %ProgramFiles(x86)% environment variables get normalized at startup according to the scheme described in bug #47
  • Some executables are symlinked to %SystemDrive%\just-install (only on Windows Vista and later).
  • Added a new command-line -s switch to force regeneration of shim executables without having to re-install the program again. E.g.: just-install -s mercurial.

Changed

  • just-install now comes as an MSI package.
  • just-install self-update is now an alias for just-install -f just-install.
  • Installers and executables in general are now launched directly instead of going through the shell.
  • just-install now honors registry entries not having the installer as first argument for entries of "custom" type.

Removed

  • just-install will no longer try to copy itself to %WinDir%.

2.1.0 - 2014-08-22

Added

  • Add support for wrapped installers (e.g. MSI file in a ZIP container). To see how to use this feature check out the "colemak" and "smartkey" entries from the registry.
  • Add support for extracting ZIP files to an arbitrary location on disk. To see how this feature works, see the "depends" and "sysinternals" entries from the registry.

Fixed

  • Now honoring the "arguments" array for "custom" installers.
  • Just-Install exits with an error if it fails to parse the registry.

2.0.1 - 2014-08-12

  • Embedded manifest to require elevation.
  • Embedded the icon in the executable again.

2.0.0 - 2014-08-5

  • New command line interface, run just-install --help for help.
  • Does not require the Visual C++ 2008 Runtime to be installed anymore.
  • Antivirus program should not flag just-install as a virus anymore.
  • More solid self-update functionality.
  • New catalog file format.
  • Rewritten in Go.
