Ok yes I've obviously spent 2 mins reading the instructions! But my concern would still be that tags are irrelevant information as cropgui doesn't use tags in any meaningful way. Also Rhinocerous if you want to mange this repo and do it however you like, I would be delighted. I could spend this time actually writing code.

I think you might misunderstand. Both lines of code still pull the latest version, i.e. 541e812. The only difference is that the recommended pkgver lists the most recent version in the string itself, and counts revisions relative to this. Hence, users know that they are running a version 60 commits after 0.2. I think you might be confusing it with non-vcs PKGBUILD, i.e. `cropgui` (without the `-git`), which would have a hard coded pkgver of 0.2. Unlike either vcs code, this would pull the 2009 version.

I hear you, but you will notice the tags haven't been updated since 2009, so waddyado. I need the recent changes, that's why this package exists. I you want to bug jepler about tagging, go for it and I'll update this too. Cheers

Thanks for the update. However, you are now using the "untagged" pkgver, instead of the code that I recommended. Since upstream *does* use tags, you should use the code in my last comment, as per the wiki [a again]. This makes the version `0.2.r60.g541e812-1` instead of the current `r135.541e812-1`, i.e. it includes the most recent tag in it. (You won't need to rebump epoch this time, since 0… > r…)

It looks like your pkgver is only based on the commit hash, so pacman won't update it with new versions. See here for the proper way to do it [a]. Basically, you should use git describe --long --tags | sed 's/^v//;s/\([^-]*-g\)/r\1/;s/-/./g' but given the current version is broken, you'll need to add a new epoch, too [b].

The build can be fixed by adding the second line of these two: pkgver() { cd "$srcdir/$pkgname"

Building fails: ==> Starting pkgver()... fatal: Not a git repository (or any parent up to mount point /var/cache/pacman/pkg) Stopping at filesystem boundary (GIT_DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM not set). ==> ERROR: pkgver is not allowed to be empty. ==> ERROR: pkgver() generated an invalid version:

Makepkg complains upon reaching pkgver about the current directory not being a git repo. Perhaps there needs to be a $( cd "$srcdir/$pkgname" ) in there.

Actually, it seems to work without downgrading now - not sure what's changed though.
