Thank you for your interest!

Please use the pu branch from GitLab for development [1]. We're
currently in a migration phase and the repository at git.archlinux.org
is no longer updated.

All patches should pass `make -C test`.

The test suite has evolved over time; there are several threads about
individual aspects of the test suite but no single thread that covers
everything.

Best regards,
Lukas
