Tap-based package manager for Gas City packs.
Implemented as a Gas City pack — no modifications to the gc binary required. Include it in your city and all gc packman commands become available.
Add packman to your city's includes:
# city.toml
[workspace]
includes = ["path/to/gc-packman"]Or via a git reference:
[workspace]
includes = ["https://github.com/gastownhall/gc-packman/tree/v0.1.0"]Then register a tap and start adding packs:
gc packman tap add gastownhall https://github.com/gastownhall/packs
gc packman search gastown
gc packman add gastown
