Github Repo Separation #131

Closed AchmadFathoni closed 3 years ago

AchmadFathoni commented 3 years ago

Every AUR in this repo should be separated to individual repo. So people don't need to have 2 copy of same AUR in their machine. Also this repo's issue & PR page are cluttered with issue & PR from different AUR.

This is my current workflow.

  1. Get broken upstream AUR in ~/.cache/yay/orocos-kdl-python
  2. Fix it
  3. Pull ~/pkgbuilds/orocos-kdl-python
  4. Copy .SRCINFO and PKGBUILD to pkgbuilds/orocos-kdl-python
  5. Commit, push, and make PR

If you separate each AUR to individual repo, the workflow will be much easier

  1. Get broken upstream AUR in ~/.cache/yay/orocos-kdl-python
  2. Fix it
  3. Run git remote add github git@github.com:AchmadFathoni/orocos-kdl-python.git once.
  4. Commit, push and make PR

What is your workflow @acxz? And what is the reason for making one Github repo for multiple AUR?

My workflow for this repo is based on using aurpublish. Instead of having a repo for each package, it is much easier to have one repo for all my packages. One downside is that based on how many packages I have, it is the .git can get pretty big.

There may be a way to directly add the subtree as a remote, although I am not familiar enough with git subtrees.

I am not going to split my packages that I maintain into separate repos.
