Github-pages: download release

Question

I have a GitHub repository.

Though I have made a release of the project, the corresponding download link does not appear on the page (I used the gh-pages wizard to create this page).

Any suggestions to get the usual "download latest tarball/zip" download links?

Answer 1

It looks like you're using an auto generated GitHub Pages site. To get the download links on your site, you have three options.

• Add links to the downloads at the top of your README.md. The zip link is ( https://github.com/parsiad/mlinterp/archive/v0.1.zip ) and the tar ball link is ( https://github.com/parsiad/mlinterp/archive/v0.1.tar.gz ). You can create links in Markdown easily; instructions for links can be found here . Once the links are added to your README.md, they will appear on your auto-generated site.
• Change your theme to something like Modernist that comes with the download links by default.
• Instead of automatically generating your GitHub Pages site, pull it into your repository and modify it yourself. You would then be able to add a link to the top of your theme next to the one that is already there.
