Misc #16630
open
Deprecate pub/ruby/*snapshot* and use pub/ruby/snapshot/* instead
Description
In https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/, snapshots links to pub/ruby/snapshot.* and pub/ruby/stable-snapshot.* as official snapshot tarballs now.
I want to change links to snapshot tarballs in https://cache.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/snapshot/.
They created by https://github.com/ruby/actions/ now.
Tarballs under pub/ruby/snapshot/ have branch name (e.g. ruby_2_7) in filenames.
And they are tested. (but they remain even if tests failed.)
pub/ruby/*snapshot.* are not tested.
And there are fewer files under pub/ruby/ without sub-directory recently. (e.g. ruby- 2.7.* are in pub/ruby/2.7/ only.)
So I want to remove them.
Because of the plan, stable-snapshot.* are still snapshot of ruby_2_6 instead of ruby_2_7.

I agree with your proposal. It's difficult to handle for us continuously.
Can we remove it?
