Hi,
I just added a section to the AUR article in the Arch wiki that describes how to submit packages to the new AUR. Here is a draft of the notification that I plan to send to all AUR package maintainers on June 1st: [...]
I think the wiki should contain some information/hints on how to convert existing git repos (which might be without .SRCINFO) so they can be pushed to aur4. I think some while ago there was a script for that here on the ML?
(Sorry for not doing that myself - I'm aware it's a wiki, but I'm a bit busy at the moment, so I'd appreciate if someone else could take care of that, if people agree with the idea)

I think the command you're looking for is
git filter-branch --tree-filter mksrcinfo <branch>
The scripts you referred to are for people who tracked all of their packages in a single git tree.
That's actually the situation I'm in - but I guess the wiki should have some pointers for both cases.
Crazy, I know, but some people are stuck in subversion mode.
I disagree - I never used SVN and used git since about 5 years, but I really don't want to clutter my GitHub account and/or own git page with 37 repos, most of it only containing a single file.

Do you put all of your configs and other projects in the same repo? That would be cleaner, too, wouldn't it?
