If the package's name does not end in -git/svn/etc, then don't touch the pkgver or pkgrel. This changes the current semantics of makepkg, but it shouldn't be too mind blowing.
Well... even if Dave's ramblings are to be ignored, I am very strongly against this. 1) If you have defined _gitroot etc then you have a git package. The name of the package is immaterial. 2) If you do not want to update your pkgver then use the --holdver flag. (which is crap... but achieves the same as this patch). What problem is this solving? All I can see is adding a restriction to what a package name can be with absolutely no benefit. Allan
