Recently I have finished writing bob's latest feature, hash-support. which basically allows you to automatically build neovim from source from a specified commit.

But before i merge and release it I need you to help me test this for multiple systems.

To get started:

Either clone bob and compile `hash-support` branch or get the latest branch build from https://github.com/MordechaiHadad/bob/actions/runs/3259680655

Dependencies:

Cmake, git

On Windows:

Visual Studio with the c++ extension

On Unix:

Clang or GCC

for platform specific dependencies check: https://github.com/neovim/neovim/wiki/Building-Neovim#build-prerequisites

How to test:

MacOS disclaimer: Neovim recently changed the name of the folder neovim binaries resides in for macos version, so errors are normal(it is fixed in master branch)

After you have the bob build run:

`bob use <commit-hash>`

Try that a couple of times with different commits and if you encounter any errors feel free to open an issue on https://github.com/MordechaiHadad/bob/issues

I will be off for a holiday so I will respond with a delay.
