e.g. 'cd wimlib && git checkout v1.14.0'. For old versions, please refer to the
documentation for that version, as things may have changed. Also, it is
possible to use a release tarball (e.g. wimlib-1.14.0.tar.gz) instead of the git
-repository; however, the make-windows-release script will not be available in
-that case and you will need to handle more things yourself.

Finally, to actually do a build, close the MSYS2 shell you have open, then open
one of the following from the Start menu:
* "MSYS2 CLANG64" - for x86_64 binaries, built with clang
* "MSYS2 MINGW32" - for i686 binaries, built with gcc
* "MSYS2 CLANG32" - for i686 binaries, built with clang
- * "MSYS2 CLANGARM64" - for ARM64 binaries (EXPERIMENTAL, needs Windows ARM64)
+ * "MSYS2 CLANGARM64" - for ARM64 binaries (EXPERIMENTAL)
(If unsure, use "MSYS2 MINGW64".) Then run the following commands:
cd wimlib
- tools/make-windows-release --install-msys2-packages
+ tools/windows-build.sh --install-prerequisites
-The script will automatically download and install the MSYS2 packages needed to
-build wimlib in the chosen MSYS2 environment, then build wimlib. The output
-will be in a folder named similarly to "wimlib-1.14.0-windows-x86_64-bin". Note
-that your "home" folder within MSYS2 is C:\msys64\home\%USERNAME% by default.
