## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

chsrc is a cross-platform command-line tool and framework for switching software download and package sources, aimed especially at environments where mirror choice affects install speed or reachability.

### Projektgeschichte

The public GitHub repository was created in September 2023, and the README describes the project as a C11-based tool intended to avoid forcing users to install a large interpreted-language runtime just to change sources. Its docs frame chsrc as both a CLI and a recipe-oriented source-switching framework.

### Adoptionsgeschichte

The upstream README documents packaging through Homebrew, Scoop, WinGet, and AUR, while the batch input also records Nix packaging. The README says the tool supports more than 65 source-changing targets, which gives it a broader scope than one-off mirror-switch scripts.

### Wie es verwendet wird

Typical use is to list supported targets and mirrors, measure mirror speed, set a target to the fastest or selected mirror, inspect the current source, or reset a target to its upstream default. The README shows package-manager installation plus curl-based installers for POSIX and Windows systems.

### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

chsrc matters to package-manager users because it treats mirror selection as a repeatable CLI workflow across many ecosystems rather than as hand-edited per-tool configuration. Its package-manager distribution also makes it a meta-package-management utility: a package installed by package managers to reconfigure package sources.

### Zeitleiste

- 2023: Public GitHub repository created.
- 2024: Pre-release binaries published on GitHub Releases.
- 2025: v0.2.0 and later releases continued the packaged CLI line.
- 2026: Homebrew formula tracks v0.2.5.

### Related projects

- The README references chsrc-bootstrap for platforms without prebuilt binaries and describes recipes as the way contributors add new source-changing targets.
