using rebar3_gpb_plugin as example
rebar3 new release myrel and config rebar.config just like what I do using with new app
but plugin will search /myrel/apps/myrel/proto instead of /myrel/proto, It’s correct, but I can’t understand it in a long time and image myrel app as a main app util I write plugin these day because I do the same thing with new app and it work!
finally, I think new release create app as new app will be better, just like the result of:
rebar3 new release myrel
cd myrel/apps
rebar3 new app myrel
