Hi!

I had a situation here where doing bin install -a https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp for some reason did not prompt me to choose a particular binary, but just added the aarch64 which was wrong.

I spent half an hour trying to understand what to do, until i finally saw the -a flag which let me select the one I wanted. I would suggest that you add this to the README.md usage section as it was very helpful (and / or FAQ)

besides adding something in the README and/or command output, seems like there's a bug where as it shouldn't be picking the aarch64 file by default. I'll look into this as soon as I have some time.

Ok! Yeah I was surprised :)

The command I was running was bin install https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp

As always, thanks for a great project.
