shards-lang boost dependencies

This repository contains build scripts to bundle the boost sources required to build shards

The packaged sources are fetched from a github release in this repository using:

FetchContent_Declare(
    boost
    URL      https://github.com/shards-lang/boost/releases/download/boost-f74a225c09-2/output.7z
    URL_HASH SHA256=7C876AC31F7D1A80C9B4671FD960399F86CF24DC9DA83AFF7F1CBC8984424080
)

Packaging a new version

When a tag is pushed to this repository, the CI step will run the package_shards script and make a release linked to that tag, reference the new archive URL and hash in the original project.

Adding dependencies

Add dependencies to the array MODULES inside the package_shards script

Updating

To update this repository use a git rebase -i <commit>, where <commit> is probably a tagged release commit from the upstream superproject (e.g. boost-1.81.0)

Make sure to include the commits containing this doc and package script on top of the rebase, alongside and submodule modifications. To keep it easy to update, you should tag shards specific commits with [shards]

NOTE: Any newly added submodules by boost should be modified to reference the absolute url, e.g. https://github.com/boostorg/url.git instead of ../url.git
