How to use
To use this tool, you need to install Git first.
You can download the latest stable from Releases or download workflow artifacts from Github Actions to try this app based on latest commits.
For Windows users:
- MSYS Git is NOT supported. Please use official Git for Windows instead.
Source.win-x64.zipmay be reported as virus by Windows Defender. I don't know why. I have manually tested the zip to be uploaded using Windows Defender before uploading and no virus was found. If you have installed .NET 8 SDK locally, I suggest you to compile it yourself. And if you have any idea about how to fix this, please open an issue.
