Nightly binary builds of Emacs for macOS, with native-compilation enabled, as a
|
|
completely self-contained Emacs.app application bundle.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- Self-contained Emacs.app application, with no external dependencies.
|
|
- Native-compilation is enabled in nightly builds from the `master` branch of
|
|
Emacs, and should just work without the need to install GCC, libgccjit, or any
|
|
other dependencies.
|
|
- Includes the [fix-window-role][] and [system-appearance][] patches from the
|
|
excellent [emacs-plus][] project.
|
|
- Build are creation is transparent and public through the use of GitHub
|
|
Actions, allowing anyone to inspect git commit SHAs, full source code, and
|
|
exact commands used to produce a build. This is especially important right now
|
|
as builds are not yet signed and notarized.

## Downloads
|

|
|
See the [Releases][] page to download latest builds.

|
|
|
## Build Process
|
|
|
|
Building Emacs is done using the [jimeh/build-emacs-for-macos][] build script,
|
|
executed within a GitHub Actions workflow. Full build history is available
|
|
[here][actions].
|
|
|
|

|
|
[actions]: https://github.com/jimeh/emacs-builds/actions
|
|
|
|
Nightly builds are scheduled for 2:35 UTC every night, based on the latest
|
|
commit from the `master` branch of the [emacs-mirror/emacs][] repository. This
|
|
means a nightly build will only be produced if there have been new commits since
|
|
the last nightly build.

## Untrusted Application
|
|
|
|
Currently builds are not signed or notarized, meaning macOS cannot verify
|
|
Emacs.app came from a trusted developer, and by default you are not even given
|
|
the option to trust the app and open it anyway.
|
|
|
|
Simplest way around this: Instead of double-clicking on Emacs.app in Finder,
|
|
right-click (or control-click) on Emacs and select "Open". You will then be
|
|
given the same warning as before, with a "Open" button now available to open the
|
|
app anyway. After that you can open the application like normal without any
|
|
warnings.
|
|
|
|
## To-Do
|
|
|
|
- [ ] Sign and notarize builds.
|
|
- [ ] Builds for stable versions of Emacs.
|
|
- [ ] Populate GitHub Release description with relevant info about the build,
|
|
including a link to the GitHub Actions workflow run that produced the
|
|
build.
|
|
- [ ] (Eventually) support Apple Silicon mac builds when native-compilation
|
|
actually works on Apple Silicon.
|
|
- [ ] (Eventually) support builds for Linux.
