Experimental features

Much like Go, GoReleaser can be told to use an experimental feature via environment variables.

Currently, the following experiments are available.

Default `GOARM` change to `7`

Since v2.4.

Historically, GoReleaser sets GOARM to 6 by default. You can make it use 7 instead by setting:

export GORELEASER_EXPERIMENTAL="defaultgoarm"

This will be default behavior in GoReleaser v3.

Note

You can also set the GORELEASER_EXPERIMENTAL variable in env array in your .goreleaser.yml.
