I just developed a Sublime Text plugin / package (Cycle Setting) for the first time, pushed it to github, then looked at the Package Control developer instructions. Is there any [easy] way to structure my repo the way I want (not necessarily putting all package files in the root / putting files in the root that I don’t want in the installed package) and still distribute via Package Control?
I’m thinking I’d like to be able to have files in a repo that are related to a package or its development without them actually being installed on users’ machines with the package.
If I understand correctly, it looks like it would be possible to zip it up with a .sublime-package extension and point to that from a repository JSON file. But, that would be extra work / steps. Is there any way to structure the repo how I want and just point Package Control to a github URL? I haven’t been able to find a way to request a zip of a subtree of a branch from github, so I’m guessing Package Control wouldn’t be able to do this without taking an additional path argument and either downloading each file individually or downloading the zip of the whole branch and then extracting the subtree from it. But maybe there’s a solution I haven’t thought of.
