cspell: - update spellcheck for new utilities command-working: - add `ssh` to exceptions, this was needed as `setup-util-ssh` now checks for `ssh` as it handles the client too, which does a `ssh` check cpr, fs-diff: - update and correct comments on tooling and installers dorothy: - completely rewrote the user configuration setup process to reduce friction, streamline UX for beginners and pros, and eliminate fragility - questions now have descriptions for YOLO no-RTFM users who install first and expect the installation to walk them through the project, shoutout to our YOLO user `@christianaudigeur6177` on youtube - incentives authentication with github and gitlab to offer a superior repo creation/verification experience, and to prevent rate limiting /close #225 /improves #270 - able to now detect renamed github repositories if using the github cli, and prompts the user for what to do /ref #225 - robust and intuitive fallbacks if any step fails - clear and robust strongbox setup, with improved description and flow, no longer waits for confirm as we now auto-verify - strongbox and dorothy repo detection is now offloaded to `git-helper` rather than fetch, this means it now works on all repositories not just public github repositories, with none of the fragility, /close #266 - remove a legacy `__require_array 'mapfile'` /ref c158b97 get-installer: - update aliases for the updated `setup-util-*` comments git-helper: - add `get-remote-file`, `has-remote-file`, `is-dorothy`, `is-strongbox` actions - correct `--` usage in help text - remote selection skips confirmation if there is only one remote add: - `setup-util-croc` intended for `cpr` and dorothy strongbox init - `setup-util-diff` extracted from `setup-util-git` - `setup-util-diff-so-fancy` intended for `fs-diff` - `setup-util-difftastic` intended for `fs-diff` - `setup-util-git-lfs` extracted from `setup-util-git` - `setup-util-gitell` extracted from `setup-util-git` - `setup-util-magic-wormwhole` intended for `cpr` and dorothy strongbox init - `setup-util-meld` extracted from `setup-util-git` - `setup-util-pinentry` extracted from `setup-util-git` - `setup-util-ssh` handles the client and server, previously `setup-util-sshd` only handled server, that is not deprecated - `setup-util-ssh-askpass` extracted from `setup-util-git` - `setup-util-termscp` intended for `cpr` and dorothy strongbox init setup-util: - check is no longer constrained to `--quiet` mode, as we can just output the necessary text, this dramtically improves the successful checks which prevents DOWNLOAD determinations hitting the GitHub API causing Rate Limit encounters during the intial non-quiet dorothy setup experience /improves #270 setup-util-*: - changed `setup-util "$@" --check --cli=<cli>` to `setup-util --check --cli=<cli> "$@"`, such that `--no-check` can be passed by the user to disable the checks setup-util-gh: - clearer messaging on why one would want to authenticate setup-util-git: - extract extra installers into their own `setup-util-*` scripts setup-util-node: - correct a syntax for a `git-helper` call docs/private-configuration: - update for new strongbox flow deprecated: - `setup-util-sshd` has been replaced by `setup-util-ssh` which now handles both client and server
