hey @cpanato When would the next release go out? I can't test/use the arm64 version until the next release I assume 😏

I will review the things and maybe next week

but you can build in your side and test it :)

😞 I tried and failed to build. Not sure why it would need an existing binary to build new binaries (i'm new to mage). I followed the release flow in this repo's github actions, running ./setup.sh then mage -v checkLicenseHeaders then mage -v lint (with one shellcheck warning SC2155) and finally tried running mage -v build and mage -v release both failed to find an existing goreleaser binary. Any advice @cpanato ? Maybe this should go in a separate issue 🤷
@cpanato advice?

mage -v build
Running target: Build
exec: goreleaser release --rm-dist --snapshot
Error: failed to run "goreleaser release --rm-dist --snapshot: exec: "goreleaser": executable file not found in $PATH"

nvm. I was able to build with the setup.sh and build.sh scripts. I was trying to run the mage build command directly and was getting the above error. I also had to manually install the goreleaser tool. After that, the build ran successfully (except it obviously couldn't actually push to the registry without credentials) and I was able to see the two new binaries I was expecting (linux_arm64 and darwin_arm64):

$ ls *.tar.gz
chart-releaser_v1.2.1-next_darwin_amd64.tar.gz
chart-releaser_v1.2.1-next_linux_arm64.tar.gz
chart-releaser_v1.2.1-next_darwin_arm64.tar.gz
chart-releaser_v1.2.1-next_linux_armv6.tar.gz
chart-releaser_v1.2.1-next_linux_amd64.tar.gz

And when I copied the binary to an linux_arm64 device I was able to run it successfully:

$ ./cr version
Version:         v1.2.1
Git commit:      cc39dd44533ba0e2d72f15cd516d986eb8bcc70e

$ uname -m

$ uname

I don't have an m1 mac to test the darwin_arm64 binary that I built, but I expect it to work just as well. 🤷

I guess it'd be tricky to backfill previous release versions with arm64 binaries
