Hello everybody,
hg and svn packages do set vcs revision infos for package versions. Any reason this does not apply to git, cvs and darcs?
Using a date string has the drawback that two revisions compiled the same day result in packages with the same version...
A patch for git is attached. Any chance to get this merged? I could take a look at darcs and cvs as well.
The VCS PKGBUILD system has been completely overhauled - see https://projects.archlinux.org/users/allan/pacman.git/log/?h=vcs . This will be merged into the main repo soon. It has the facility to specify a pkgver() function that provides the updated version.
Ok, will wait for that to be merged upstream then.
Note your git version setting code gives "glibc_2.16_ports_merge_37_gb637d46" for the pkgver for glibc-git... Just a sed to get rid of a "v" is not enough as any tag can be used.
Ok, you are right. I just looked through my locally cloned git repositories, these do have simple version tags. -- main(a){char*c=/* Schoene Gruesse */"B?IJj;MEH" "CX:;",b;for(a/* Chris get my mail address: */=0;b=c[a++];) putchar(b-1/(/* gcc -o sig sig.c && ./sig */b/42*2-3)*42);}
