GitHub release artifact names have changed

[zeke]

Newer versions of Cog have assets with lowercase filenames, like cog_darwin_x86_64

But they used to be mixed case, like cog_Darwin_arm64

So now our installation instructions on the README don't work for recent releases, because the output of uname -s on macOS is capitalized Darwin:

sudo curl -o /usr/local/bin/cog -L "https://github.com/replicate/cog/releases/latest/download/cog_$(uname -s)_$(uname -m)"
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/cog

I haven't looked into it yet, but I'm guessing this was an unexpected change from a goreleaser upgrade.

Affected versions:

• All prerelease versions > 0.8.6
• https://github.com/replicate/cog/releases/tag/v0.8.6 ("latest")

This was probably the offending change: #1238

Edit: Nope it was #1176

[zeke]

Here's a command for doing a dry run locally and viewing the output names:

goreleaser release --snapshot --skip=publish --clean
cat dist/artifacts.json | jq

(Note this is different from what it was when @mattt last did a dry run: #1176 (comment))

[zeke]

To add fuel to the fire, we also have this new default. prefix which is showing up for arm64 binaries:

default.cog_darwin_arm64
default.cog_linux_arm64

So even if we fix the casing of the uname, the currently documented curl instructions still won't work. 🙄
