# Create an AppImage of Tectonic. If the environment variable
# $TECTONIC_APPIMAGE_TAG is set, the created file will have a name like
# `tectonic-${TECTONIC_APPIMAGE_TAG}-$ARCH.AppImage`; otherwise the tag will
# be the version of the Tectonic binary. You can also set $UPDATE_INFORMATION
# to embed update info in the AppImage and cause the creation of a zsync file.
# The format of the variable should be as described here:
# https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageSpec/blob/master/draft.md#update-information
#
# This script is structured so that it can be run locally, but it's expected
# that it will primarily be used inside CI.
