Download Binary

First download the binary you need from the latest release (the assets section at the bottom)

Which binary do I need?

Linux:

You need one of the Binaries with linux in it’s name, depending on your Processor (AMD / ARM), and your preferred installation method. For this tutorial we’ll stick with .deb for installation via apt

Windows:

For Windows, download one of the Binaries with windows in it’s name, select whether you need AMD or ARM.

MacOS:

For MacOS, download one of the “darwin” Binaries, depending on whether you use ARM or AMD

For further installation scroll down to your OS

Linux

If you downloaded the .deb binary, you can now install it via:

sudo apt install ./path/to/deb/gith_<version>_linux_<something>.deb

Windows

I was not able to do this yet, if you could test this, please create a post / issue etc.

MacOS

I was not able to do this yet, if you could test this, please create a post / issue etc.

Updates

For updates, you’ll have to download the new binaries form GitHub, and install them.

For easier updates, you can switch to Installation & Updates via Go.
