Add Jetbrains Mono font

[rickard-von-essen]

JetBrains recently released a developer focused font called JetBrains Mono that would be great to get in.

Checked license, looks good to include. No RFN restriction so meaning we don't have to rename it.. can simply be Jetbrains Mono Nerd Font or something 😄

@damnskippy Thanks for the linking and @rickard-von-essen for the tracking issue.

Closing now because #421 is merged.

Since I am a new user of this repo, I have a stupid question: about how long does it take once the merge-request has landed for Brew packages and the website to be updated?

[ryanoasis]

@jrop No that is a not a stupid question 😄

Merge requests don't really kick off anything in terms of releases or website updates. Master branch is almost a develop branch in that sense.

The brew packages I am aware of target the release archives so we would have to cut a new release. This process is mostly automated with some manual work involved.

Typically the website is updated after the release is pushed out.

Hope that helps.

Any chance of a new release in the near future? I'm interested in getting the nerd font patched version of this font added to homebrew-cask-fonts.

[ryanoasis]

@danielwaltz There's always a chance 😉

But seriously, yes there is a very good chance there will be a release very soon. I don't want to give a date to avoid disappointment.

I am not just being optimistic but I have reasons:

1. I've just gotten back into serious efforts to make a much overdue release (PRs merged, triaging some overdue issues)
2. The archiving script wasn't working and was not adding a few fonts
3. I am trying to mentally shift from making sure everything is perfect but instead just make reasonable tests

That's good to hear! Take as long as you need. Really appreciate your contributions!
