🧑‍💻 Usage

To develop and release ReVanced Patches using this template, some things need to be considered:

• Development starts in feature branches. Once a feature branch is ready, it is squashed and merged into the dev branch
• The dev branch is merged into the main branch once it is ready for release
• Semantic versioning is used to version ReVanced Patches. ReVanced Patches have a public API for other patches to use
• Semantic commit messages are used for commits
• Commits on the dev branch and main branch are automatically released via the release.yml workflow, which is also responsible for generating the changelog and updating the version of ReVanced Patches. It is triggered by pushing to the dev or main branch. The workflow uses the publish task to publish the release of ReVanced Patches
• The buildAndroid task is used to build ReVanced Patches so that it can be used on Android. The publish task depends on the buildAndroid task, so it will be run automatically when publishing a release.
