PKGBUILD management framework for the Arch User Repository

Install

The standard make && sudo make install routine is used. The following additional variables are supported:

• DESTDIR -- staged installs for distro packaging
• PREFIX -- where to install generated script, defaults to /usr/local
• HOOKSDIR -- where to install githooks, defaults to <PREFIX>/share/aurpublish

How it works

Commit PKGBUILDs in named subdirectories. Export them to the AUR with the aurpublish command, using the subtree push stratagem. This preserves an independent history for third-party hosting, pull requests... ;)

Commands

• aurpublish setup

Initialize a new repository with githooks.

• aurpublish PACKAGE

Push PACKAGE to the AUR. With "--speedup", merges the split history back in.

• aurpublish -p PACKAGE

Pull package from the AUR (if you adopted an existing package, or have a co-maintainer).

• aurpublish log PACKAGE

View the git log of a package subtree.

• import-from-aur3.sh PACKAGE

Experimental. Download the history of a non-migrated AUR3 package, and commit it to a new subtree.

Hooks

• pre-commit

Warn about whitespace errors, fail if checksums don't match, and auto-generate .SRCINFO for all changed PKGBUILDs.

• prepare-commit-msg

Prefill the commit message with a list of added/updated/deleted packages + versions (if any).
