## Q & A

* What is the canary release / kitch?
*
* Why is this repo empty / where's the source?
* Source is here:
* This repo is used to be for storing releases, but we now use butler to deploy releases directly to itch.io
* Why is it named kitch?
* Because `itch_canary` and `itch-canary` kept breaking various parts of the build pipeline.
* Why is it named canary?
* Stole the word from Google Chrome.
* Also, canaries let you know when a mine's about to blow up.
* Why is kitch lagging behind master?
* Because it's only built when someone pushes a tag like `vX.Y.Z-canary`
* Why is kitch lagging behind stable?
* Because there hasn't been a QA session yet after the last stable release
* Why is it blue?
* Because peek-a-boo and we love you.
