If you have a problem during any system update with
mutter-performance
&gnome-shell-performance
, please installmutter
&gnome-shell
packages from the main repository and do full upgrade first, then build the performance packages later.If you are using [gnome-unstable] and [extra-testing] repositories, use mutter-performance-unstable
The default patch list includes "Dynamic triple buffering(!1441)", "text-input-v1(!3751)".
Latest Dynamic triple buffering patch has several included MRs from the main development branch to achieve maximum performance.
To enable a specific MR in the Merge Requests List, add an line "_merge_requests_to_use+=('<MR number>')" at the end of PKGBUILD. (Because if you edit the line directly you can be able to end up with merge conflict upon updates.)

If you are getting errors like
fatal: bad revision '73e8cf32'
while building this package, refer to PKGBUILD and see which patches caused this. Then, go to the related URLs, replace the commit hashes. If there are conflicts, comment out the patches.Please notify me in comment section if this happens.
The optional performance patches are by default enabled.
