More frequent releases please!

Current Behavior

As of writing, the current release of tsdx is 0.12.3, which came out over 5 weeks ago, and there has since been 34 new commits, half of which have brought new or revised functionality. This new functionality, as it has not been released, is not readily accessible to users of tsdx.

Desired Behavior

More frequent updates please!

Suggested Solution

Adopt a continuous release strategy. When code is merged into master (and all tests are passing) a new release should be made.

If current tests are insufficient to ensure that the latest master branch is safe for release, then new tests should be added. 😀

Some discussion on automated releases can be found in #254

Who does this impact? Who is this for?

All users of tsdx.

Describe alternatives you’ve considered

I have tried to run tsdx directly from the github repo using npx github:jaredpalmer/tsdx create package-name however as of the time of writing this failed with the following error:

npm ERR! prepareGitDep src/index.ts(349,11): error TS2367: This condition will always return 'false' since the types '"START" | "BUNDLE_START" | "BUNDLE_END" | "END" | "ERROR"' and '"FATAL"' have no overlap.
npm ERR! prepareGitDep src/index.ts(351,24): error TS2339: Property 'error' does not exist on type 'RollupWatcherEvent'.
npm ERR! prepareGitDep   Property 'error' does not exist on type '{ code: "START"; }'.

Sorry I have been a bit MIA. Have been cranking on Formik Inc. now full time and haven’t been on GitHub much. Similarly Shawn (@sw-yx) is crazy busy as well. Giving contributor and publish rights to @agilgur5 who has done an amazing job with this project over the last several months

Jared gave me publishing rights yesterday so I just published v0.13.0. Sorry for the long delay everyone.

I’ve now triaged ~95% of all open and closed issues, have basically read through all of them. Not all are resolved yet of course, but I’ve closed, resolved, labeled, marked as duplicate / support / etc many.

Still have 2 more PRs to review (the ones on custom templates), the rest I’ve already reviewed or are authored by me (or are automated dependency updates).

Might start using milestones for better transparency on Roadmap, but hard to predict where/when things may land.

(Also deleted 120+ more stale greenkeeper branches, something like ~2/3s of the total)

Have also added everyone who’s contributed PRs as contributors in All Contributors (hence the 74 commits/PRs of such in the log). Probably still a good portion of people who contributed bug reports or ideas that haven’t been credited yet though. That’s on backlog, but ping me with links to your contributions if you want to be credited near-term.
