[Feature Request] Support for GitHub as a source format #19

Closed DataDrake closed 7 years ago

DataDrake commented 8 years ago

It would be super nice if I could pull source from github for some things, say PCSX2 for example.

The idea would be that instead of tar + sha256, it would do a local clone, checkout a specific Tag, and then proceed building as normal.

If security is a concern, ignore me.

The only downside I can see would be what is an acceptable clone depth?

DataDrake commented 8 years ago

Most of the time all I need is a specific tag. Nothing else in the history or other branches is needed.

Initial support in 3e11213da47515286aea45ff88982d11c492ae28 - going to need a fair bit of testing first

Kinda solved. >_>
