Description

The azcopy script currently uses a static URL for downloading. There seems to be a window during new releases of azcopy where the assets are available on github releases and a new release is also available but the static URL returns 404. I don't have full context of this static URL here, how it is patched to point to the releases, but this URL doesn't seem very robust. Switching to use the github releases assets would make for a more resilient script, adding the changes for that here.

Oh, I see we're on the same page. 😄 I'm glad you're paying attention to the project and wanting to make it better—there's nothing more satisfying for a maintainer.

There's a problem. We don't accept contributions to macOS for technical reasons. 😞 There are two options:

  • First, you leave only the changes for Ubuntu, and team will review it separately.
  • Second, I'll simply add you as a co-author here: link.

What would you prefer? 🤔

@erik-bershel Let do co-author then, it would be best if we could add the changes for macos as well.
