Description
GHC is doing it:
- https://github.com/haskell/ghcup-hs/issues/824
- https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/merge_requests/10373
Quoting ghcup maintainer:
> the approach is that you generate a GHCup metadata file every day,
> which can be added by the end user just like the pre-release channel
>
> The format is in the types/JSON instances. Or just check the existing metadata
> The PR augments the format with two now tags and a release date field
