## Historique du projet et usages

eget is Zachary Yedidia's small Go CLI for installing prebuilt binaries from GitHub releases. It occupies the practical space between curl scripts, manual release downloads, and full package-manager formulas.

### Historique du projet

The first public GitHub release was v0.1.0 in August 2021. The README describes a focused tool: provide a repository or URL, let eget inspect release assets, pick a matching binary for the current system, download it, and extract it.

The v1.0.0 release in January 2022 added support for extracting multiple files and directories, making eget usable for projects distributed as archives rather than just one naked executable. The project later continued through the v1.3 series with cross-platform release assets.

### Historique d'adoption

eget's adoption pattern is package-manager-adjacent: it is itself packaged in Homebrew, Nix, Scoop, and winget, but its main value is installing other GitHub-release tools before or outside those package managers. The README even notes that maintainers with GitHub release binaries can list eget as a one-line install method.

### Modes d'utilisation

Users run commands such as `eget owner/repo --to /usr/local/bin`, optionally filtering assets, selecting tags, extracting a specific file, or using a GitHub token through environment variables or configuration. The README documents TOML configuration for global and per-repository defaults.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

eget is package-nerd bait because it automates the messy part of modern CLI distribution: release asset naming. It codifies common conventions around OS and architecture names, archive formats, checksums, and destination directories without trying to become a general package manager.

### Chronologie

- 2021-08-18: v0.1.0 is published.
- 2021-08-25: v0.2.0 follows during early feature work.
- 2022-01-03: v1.0.0 adds multi-file and directory extraction.
- 2022-07-22: v1.2.0 is published.
- 2024-06-07: v1.3.4 is published.

### Related projects

- GitHub Releases are the primary upstream distribution surface that eget automates.
- zyedidia/micro appears in the README examples and is a natural companion project from the same author.
- Comparable single-binary install helpers include curl scripts, go install, and package-manager formulas, but eget focuses on release assets.
