JReleaser v1.0.0-M1 has just been released! This is it folks, the road to v1.0.0 has just begun! This release fixes a variety of small issues found by consumers. Be mindful of the breaking changes introduced in this release. There are just a handful of new features besides all fixes, such as

Sigstore Cosign

Artifacts may now be signed with Sigstore's cosign. JReleaser will download a cosign binary if there's none available on the system. Cosign signatures are not compatible with GPG and thus can't be used to sign commits and tags.

Native Image

Native executables created with GraalVM Native Image may now be further compressed using UPX. Jreleaser will download an UPX binary if there's none available on the system, except for OSX which you must manually install beforehad.

Native Package

Distributions of this type may now be packaged with Homebrew, Macports, Chocolatey, and Snap.

ChronVer

ChronVer joins the list of supported versioning schemes. Be aware that JReleaser does not enforce the version matches the release date, yet.

As always, feedback is welcomed, feel free to file a ticket or start a discussion topic.

Keep on coding!
