Do not warn if package changes from `*-testing` repos or similar (cf. #219) #232

Closed ljrk0 closed 6 years ago

Description

For users of the testing-repos, aurman always "warns" that the respective packages moved from core to testing. While the actual feature is meaningful, this behavior harms the usage. The only workaround would be to deactivate that option completely.

Possible Solution

Perhaps one could hardcode a check for "testing", this'd be not really flexible. Perhaps one could blacklist some repo combinations in the config file? I'd personally be also more than happy if I'd be only warned for AUR<->Repo changes, not changes within repos. So we could add an option --skip_new_repo_locations and be fine.

The need to press one key harms the usage? Why?

Simply because it happens daily on every upgrade, which makes you either not care about the warning anymore and habitually ignore it or just deactivate the whole feature.

Okay. I do not really see your point, anyway I'd be fine with a config option to ignore specific combinations. But I am not interested in implementing this, which means that you have to do it yourself and open a PR. Otherwise it's not going to happen
