• Publishing to crates.io on tag push
• Building binaries for multiple platforms (Linux, macOS, Windows)
• Creating GitHub releases with change logs
• Generating cargo-binstall metadata

Note

"revspec 'origin/HEAD' not found"

The git interface is pretty complex. For them moment we use origin/HEAD to get the "correct" refspec. If you didn't create your local repository by cloning this will not exist. You can create it via git symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD refs/remotes/origin/master. This will be fixed in a future release.

You can verify origin/HEAD exists via git show-ref.
