This PR adds qt-creator-git, qt-creator-cdb-ext-git, and qt-creator-wininterrupt-git manifests to the Versions bucket, as discussed in ScoopInstaller/Extras#17716.

These manifests download Qt Creator from the official Qt Creator GitHub releases instead of the Qt official mirrors (download.qt.io), which are often slow or unreliable for users in certain regions.

Key points:

  • Uses GitHub CDN for faster, more reliable downloads
  • Keeps existing qt-creator manifest untouched in Extras bucket
  • Includes notes field warning that these are not officially supported builds per the GitHub release disclaimer
  • Only x64 builds are available from GitHub releases (no arm64)
  • qt-creator-cdb-ext-git and qt-creator-wininterrupt-git depend on versions/qt-creator-git
  • Full parity with the Extras bucket trio (qt-creator, qt-creator-cdb-ext, qt-creator-wininterrupt)

Verified SHA256 hashes (from GitHub release API digest field):

  • qtcreator-windows-x64-msvc-19.0.1.7z: d6bc6068587297ce2dc38787bc5ace43368f85ea59520117d2a702d59bd6e40f
  • qtcreatorcdbext-windows-x64-msvc-19.0.1.7z: cc042c1e5569c1ee5637dab034d02a8309b13214d6b32bcfc8655459d97f528a
  • wininterrupt-windows-x64-msvc-19.0.1.7z: d4c843d7a3daa1c203ed77c5797fe90251e5b1e8cc2a5a8409840d55e34faba9

Closes the discussion in Extras#17716 about providing an alternative download source.

Walkthrough

Added three Scoop package manifests for Qt Creator version 19.0.1: the main Qt Creator application, a CDB debugger extension, and a wininterrupt component. Each manifest specifies download URLs, SHA256 hashes, dependencies, post-install hooks, and automatic update configuration for Windows.

Changes

Qt Creator Package Ecosystem

Layer / File(s) Summary
Base Package
bucket/qt-creator-git.json
Qt Creator v19.0.1 manifest with 64-bit GitHub release download URL, SHA256 hash, executable path (bin\qtcreator.exe), Qt Creator shortcut, optional vcredist2022 dependency, and autoupdate via GitHub releases template.
CDB Debugger Extension
bucket/qt-creator-cdb-ext-git.json
CDB extension v19.0.1 manifest depending on main Qt Creator package. Includes download URL and hash, plus post_install PowerShell script that removes old qtcreatorcdbext* items and recreates junctions from current/lib to extracted library files.
Wininterrupt Component

Wininterrupt v19.0.1 manifest depending on main Qt Creator package. Specifies GitHub release download, hash, and post_install hook that hard-links win*interrupt.exe into the Qt Creator current/bin directory.

In `@bucket/qt-creator-cdb-ext-git.json`:
- Line 20: The Remove-Item invocation that deletes qtcreatorcdbext* can emit a
non-terminating error on first install when the glob matches nothing; update the
command string in bucket/qt-creator-cdb-ext-git.json (the line containing
Remove-Item "$(appdir qt-creator-git $global)\\current\\lib\\qtcreatorcdbext*")
to add the PowerShell flag -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue (keeping -Force
-Recurse) so the command suppresses the spurious error when no items exist.
- Around line 19-22: Add a pre_uninstall step to remove the junctions created by
post_install so they don't become dangling when this package is removed: create
a "pre_uninstall" array that runs the same Remove-Item command used in
post_install (the Remove-Item targeting "$(appdir qt-creator-git
$global)\\current\\lib\\qtcreatorcdbext*" ) so junctions are deleted before the
versioned $dir is removed; ensure the new pre_uninstall entry mirrors the
cleanup logic currently in post_install.

In `@bucket/qt-creator-wininterrupt-git.json`:
- Line 19: The package creates hard links in qt-creator-git via the post_install
command which leaves orphaned executables on uninstall; add a pre_uninstall
entry that finds the same names (the "(Get-Item
$dir\\bin\\win*interrupt.exe).Name" pattern) and removes matching files from
"$(appdir qt-creator-git $global)\\current\\bin\\" (use Remove-Item with
-Force/-ErrorAction to quietly delete each matching hard link), ensuring you
mirror the same name-selection logic used in post_install so the exact linked
filenames are removed before uninstalling.

qt-creator-git: polish manifests for professional quality

- Add `conflicts_with` to prevent side-by-side installation with
official
  `extras/qt-creator` and `extras/qt-creator-cdb-ext` packages
- Improve `notes` to explicitly mention x64-only limitation (GitHub
releases
  do not provide arm64 builds, unlike official Qt mirrors)
- Replace placeholder fake MD5 hashes with `TODO` markers to signal that
  real hashes must be computed before merge
- Keep `checkver`/`autoupdate` structure aligned with Scoop conventions
- No functional URL or dependency changes

qt-creator-git: fix schema violations, remove invalid fields

- Remove `conflicts_with` — this field does not exist in Scoop schema
  (schema.json has no such property; conflict warnings moved to `notes`)
- Remove invalid `"hash": "TODO"` — does not match hashPattern regex
  (schema requires md5:32hex, sha256:64hex, etc.)
- Omit `hash` entirely for now — schema-valid, install will warn
  (real hashes must be computed from release assets before merge)
- Expand `notes` to explicitly warn about side-by-side install conflict
  with official `extras/qt-creator` and `extras/qt-creator-cdb-ext`
- All other fields remain unchanged and schema-valid

qt-creator-git: add real SHA256 hashes, add wininterrupt companion

- Add verified SHA256 hashes from GitHub release API digest field:
  - qtcreator-windows-x64-msvc-19.0.1.7z:
    d6bc6068587297ce2dc38787bc5ace43368f85ea59520117d2a702d59bd6e40f
  - qtcreatorcdbext-windows-x64-msvc-19.0.1.7z:
    cc042c1e5569c1ee5637dab034d02a8309b13214d6b32bcfc8655459d97f528a
  - wininterrupt-windows-x64-msvc-19.0.1.7z:
    d4c843d7a3daa1c203ed77c5797fe90251e5b1e8cc2a5a8409840d55e34faba9
- Add qt-creator-wininterrupt-git.json for full parity with Extras
bucket trio
- All manifests schema-valid, conflict warnings in notes, x64-only
documented
- qt-creator-cdb-ext-git.json: add -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue to
  post_install Remove-Item to suppress spurious error on fresh install
  when no prior qtcreatorcdbext* items exist
- qt-creator-cdb-ext-git.json: add pre_uninstall to remove junctions
  from qt-creator-git's lib before uninstall, preventing dangling
  junction references
- qt-creator-wininterrupt-git.json: add pre_uninstall to remove hard
  links from qt-creator-git's bin before uninstall, preventing orphaned
  executables after package removal
