Downloads & installs the binaries in the current bvm configuration file and associates them on the path with bvm if not previously done.

Adds the specified binary at the specified url to a project's bvm configuration file based on the current directory. Installs if necessary.

The website https://bvm.land is not required to use with bvm, but it provides some services that makes publishing binaries a little easier.

If you publish a bvm.json file as a GitHub release asset (not recommended yet, due to this being a proof of concept) then you can use https://bvm.land to redirect to your release.

The bvm.land server will create registry.json files when requested. These files can then be used with the bvm registry sub command.

To cause the server to update a registry file, make a GET request to https://bvm.land/refresh-registry/<owner>/<repo-name>. After a few minutes, you should have a registry file created at either of the two endpoints depending on your repo owner and name:
