repomatic scan-virustotal - Upload release binaries to VirusTotal

repomatic scan-virustotal [OPTIONS]

Upload release binaries to VirusTotal.

Scans all .bin and .exe files in the given directory and uploads them to VirusTotal, seeding antivirus vendor databases with the signatures of the freshly built binaries.

With --poll, waits for the analyses to complete and reports each binary's flagged / total verdict counts. With --records, the polled snapshots are merged into a CSV history, which sync-binaries renders into the binaries catalog page.

Release tag the binaries belong to (e.g., v1.2.3).
[required]
VirusTotal API key.
[required]
Directory containing binary files to upload.
[required]
Maximum VirusTotal API requests per minute.
Poll for detection statistics after uploading.
Maximum seconds to wait for analysis completion when polling.
CSV scan history to record detection snapshots in (requires --poll).
Restore --records from this remote branch before scanning, so snapshots still pending in an open pull request are appended to instead of dropped. Name the branch the job publishes to. Ignored when the branch does not exist, which is every run that follows a merge.
Show this message and exit.
