@xiota: Thanks for the response & the quick update. I understand your reasoning about having the vendored repo, but there's a reason why distros don't do this and additionally prefer downloading patches from upstream instead of providing those themselves: It makes the pkg very hard to check for malice, especially if not all commits in the vendored repo are gpg signed. I may trust you to have no malicious intends, but I don't want to trust you not getting hacked. And no, using patches isn't that cumbersome that you can't do it, it's only a minor inconvenience.
As 2 side notes:
- cp --reflink=auto is the default nowadays, no need to be explicit (maybe Arch's coreutils are outdated, if so, forget it)
- You don't have to increase the pkgrel to push changes to the AUR git. No need for a bump when removing a dep and changing nothing else.
