I've used Google code in the past and had the ability to upload runnable jar files for download, now I am using GitHub and understand it had a download tab where developers were able to upload files (i.e. a runnable jar file), unfortunately it is deprecated now.
For non developers to download the whole project as a zip file and compile it, is a bit complicated. Is there another/better way to deploy/upload a runnable jar files on GitHub for download?
jar is needed to be added using the command git diff , git will indicate if you need to add the files to your repository. Them use git add . and your files will be available for commit.
Since 2d July 2013, you now have a new way to "upload runnable jar files for download" , through a release.
Releases, a workflow for shipping software to end users.
Releases are first-class objects with changelogs and binary assets that present a full project history beyond Git artifacts. They're accessible from a repository's homepage:
That now replaces the old binary upload service, which was removed in December 2012.
