In the PKGBUILD file, the main source url in
source=
becomesgit+https://github.com/bit-team/backintime.git
after variable expansion, which results in agit clone https://github.com/bit-team/backintime.git
call.So yes, whenever you install or reinstall a
-git
package with such a default URL, it will install the latest commit on the default branch.https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/VCS_package_guidelines#VCS_sources explains how to change the URL to select another git repo, another branch or select a commit. It can be changed to install, for example, a specific pull request.

Hi, is it your PKGBUILD pinned to a specific commit in the upstreams default branch or does it really always use the latest commit by its own?
buhtz commented on 2024-07-07 07:44 (UTC)
Hello willemw, my apologize. The script is really called via the make system. This gives me a headache. It is time we migrate to modern Python Packaging Standards to prevent workarounds like this.
willemw commented on 2024-07-06 16:54 (UTC)
@buhtz: please have a look at the build script (see the "View PKGBUILD" link on this page). It basically just follows the install instructions: "configure; make; make install". It's not calling any backintime scripts. I think I'll wait for the https://github.com/bit-team/backintime/pull/1782 fix.

The error is related to your packaging not to upstream. The folder "debian" was removed from upstream because it is not relevant and is especially not relevant to Arch.
EDIT: Ah... You use "updateversion.sh". That is prohibited for distro package maintainers. Just don't use it. It is a helper script for upstream maintainers only.
EDIT2: Please see this PR for a fix https://github.com/bit-team/backintime/pull/1782 . But again, I don't see a reason why you would use that script on your side.

@buhtz: *-git packages update themselves when you, the user, (re)install the package(s).
willemw commented on 2024-07-06 12:46 (UTC)
@buhtz: fails to builld (this also already happened before the fix):
buhtz commented on 2024-07-06 12:32 (UTC)
Upstream fixed and merged the issues with global file lock. Would be nice if you could upgrade your *-git packages to give it a shot.
We do prepare a new release (1.5.0) in the end of this month.
buhtz commented on 2024-06-07 11:38 (UTC)
At upstream there is a pending PR fixing the latest permission problem in context of the global file lock if the option "Run only one snapshot at a time" is enabled. I did some tests on Manjaro but would be glad if someone could give it a test before merging it. See https://github.com/bit-team/backintime/pull/1756

But "these dependencies" are listed as "Build and testing dependencies" not for regular user packages. You need this if you want to build BIT as a developer. Users don't need it.
