GitHub can tell us right in the HTTP protocol itself, rather than only in a JSON file, the information we want about the latest release of a specific project. Making use of this information can remove the jq dependency entirely. This comes at the cost of making simplexup's own code a bit harder to read.

  • This PR suggests a bug fix and I've added the necessary tests.
  • This PR introduces a new feature and I've discussed the update in an Issue or with the team.
  • This PR is just a minor change like a typo fix.
