• use certifi package to provide a certificates bundle, fixing issues
  with accessing 7-zip website (LetsEncrypt) from old Windows versions

Brigadier 0.2.5 (November 7, 2022)

• update 7-Zip to 22.01
• add -V/--version option to output the tool version
• update precompiled Windows exe to the last Python 2.7 distribution and
  compatible PyInstaller (3.6) version, resolving issues with TLS version
  support

Brigadier 0.2.4 (March 24, 2016)

• remove dependency on dmg2iso, as current 7-Zip versions seem to reliably
  extract all the contents of WindowsSupport.dmg files

Brigadier 0.2.3 (March 7, 2016)

• set msiexec '/qb-' flag instead of '/qr' to avoid issues with modal
  dialog popups during Boot Camp MSI installation (GH-14)
• update default sucatalog to El Capitan
• update 7-Zip to 15.14

0.2.2 (June 3, 2014)

• new option '-p/--product-id', allowing one to manually select a product
  to download in cases where multiple products were found for a model
• updated default Apple SUS catalog to Yosemite

• '--model' option can now be given multiple times to do multiple downloads
  in a single run
• update dmg2iso to 1.6.5
• update 7-Zip to 9.34 alpha
• update default SUS catalog to the Apple 10.9 catalog
• '-l/--leave-files' is now '-k/--keep-files', following the naming pattern
  most other utilities use when keeping files around.
• fix issue where the supported models list reported when multiple matching ESDs
  were found was inaccurate
• fix issue where 7-Zip would fail to find a 'Payload' archive; certain ESD DMGs
  recently expose only a 'Payload~' archive to 7-Zip, so we no longer assume
  both exist

• fix issues with Boot Camp installer not installing certain packages
  (particularly nVidia/Intel mgmt), by switching the '/qn' option to '/qr'
  • this runs a minimal GUI installation that still does not block for user
    input
• fix proper detection of Windows version architecture for older CPUs

Fixes:

• fix failure to properly locate BootCamp MSI with latest AutoUnattend-based drivers. now search for BootCamp{64,}.msi starting from the root down, so we don't expect a specific folder hierarchy.
