How to use own `.goreleaser.yml` from repository?

[fabiang]

I understand, that some project don't have a .goreleaser.yml file included in their repository, but I have, since I wanna build a project for Windows and some other platforms.

Currently the goreleaser.yml is overwritten by Rabbit and there seems no way of preventing Rabbit to do so.

Can we implement a check if there is an .goreleaser.yml and skip creation of the default .goreleaser.yml? How do we handle different archive types (zip vs tar.gz) then? How to pass the project name, when it's not included in the YAML?

because it was the easiest way otherwise rabbit has to figure out automatically what have been released. I totally agree that we shouldn't override the .goreleaser.yml if it exists and then move anything that got created to release directory.
