What's New

Zip File Generation

This release switches our Zip file generation to using a combination of 7-Zip and SharpCompress, which drastically speeds up running releasify. This also paves the way for the installer to use more efficient compression schemes such as LZMA2

Other fixes

  • Add additional progress events (#972, thanks @gpailler)
  • Ensure that the current directory is set for stub executables and fix the first parameter being dropped (#1016, thanks @peters)
  • Fix MSI generation flipping out if an executable used version #s greater than 255 (#1023, thanks @rcorredera)
  • Update project files to VS2017 (note that this only affects building Squirrel, not using it)
  • Delta file generation can now be disabled via the --no-delta flag
  • Fix issue when NuGet package ID had dashes in the name (#1037, thanks @robertohuertasm)
  • We now make a best effort to refuse to clean folders that have currently running executables (#1017, thanks @gajagt). Note that you should not rely on this behavior, instead signal your executables to shut down in your --squirrel-obsolete hook.
