git needs to be added to dependencies :)

@teekay Thanks for help,man do I feel stupid. All I had to do was run sudo systemctl cronie.service to enable crontab. Anyway, thanks again, this is one of the best packages on AUR. You received my vote!

@superzanti: I should have been more specific, use --verbose instead of the --quiet flag. But as a snapshot is generated when running manually, I suspect there's something fishy with your cron daemon. As a test you could add a echo "something" line in /etc/cron.hourly/snapper and/or replace the --quiet with --verbose in the snapper command. You should get a mail from cron then if it runs...

@teekay Thanks, I think that may have lead me to the problem. I get no output when running with the --verbose flag, however, when I run it, it does generate a snapshot. The snapper.log doesn't seem to have any problems either. Could this be a problem with crontab not running?

@donniezazen & superzanti Hourly timeline works fine here. Please execute the command from /etc/cron.hourly/snapper manually with --verbose flag and check your /var/log/snapper.log Also check SNAPPER_CONFIGS in /etc/conf.d/snapper - you need to enable your configs in there.

@donniezazen I'm having the same trouble. I feel like it needs to be some service that needs to be enabled via systemctl or something, but I can't quite figure it out. I can however, make snapshots just fine, diff them, and revert back to them.

It doesn't seem to do hourly snapshotting. Does it do that for you? # create hourly snapshots TIMELINE_CREATE="yes"

Updated depends for xsltproc changes (https://github.com/openSUSE/snapper/commit/c82332aa6841541822e427b6b5e42faf37b0056b) Thanks.

Please add docbook-xsl as a dependency. It wouldn't build without docbook-xsl as reported in this bug https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/10913

I unintentionally uploaded the PKGBUILD with the patch for btrfs-progs-git master uncommented, sorry! Fixed. Again for those who use a recent btrfs-progs-git, uncomment the patch. I don't know a sane way to make this conditional (like "if has_version .." on Gentoo for example)
