Hi,
I've been reading about the upcoming AUR 4.0 with git repositories for each package (which is very much welcome for a variety of reasons!).
I'm curious how existing packages will be handled. I already keep git repos for my packages, so it would be nice to be able to import those directly for two reasons:
* To share the existing history with everyone else. * If packages are imported as-are into new repositories, then I can't push the existing repos. I'll need to create clone the AUR-generated ones, and work on those, loosing all my history.
Has this sort of scenario been given any thought? [...]
Yes, please check [1].

Ah, thanks, yes, that covers it. Will all AUR mantainers get a notification when this migration period starts? I kinda don't follow aur-general too closely, generally, and I'm sure I'm not the only one. -- Hugo Osvaldo Barrera
