SVN builds best release format. - ThuGie - 06-04-2009
Hey guys,
I was wondering,
In what kind of format do you want to download your svn releases ?
As currently i myself am releasing them in a .rar extension aka WinRAR,
But i also see people use 7z and some even setup's,
I myself always used setup's but since i noticed most people just releasing it,
As a compressed archive i have done the same,
But what do you all find the most easy to use ?

7z is the best choice

I usually compress mine as 7z using 7-zip. Some people/members might like it compressed in zip format for convenience, saves them from searching out additional tools since Windows has a built in zip extractor by default.

Maybe it helps:
At my Builds nearly every 5th download is a setup

I have no preference since i use a nifty little program called ExtractNow (extractnow.com). It can pretty much extract any compression format known to man

7z packs files in the best way, it has less size after compressing unlike rar or zip
RE: SVN builds best release format. - DacoTaco - 06-05-2009
7z is smallest
hence why my builds are 7z in zip's (so that even ppl using windows' stupid zip shit can open it)
