Announcement: As a counter point to @milk's comment below, VCSH development has been quite active again. The original maintainer has added myself as a contributor and I've been doing some work on it, but the original maintainer has also been active and there have been some other contributions. I don't actually know what fork @milk was even referring to, but I don't believe there is anything else active right now and certainly nothing as active as the original.

There are no current known problems building from the upstream branch. If there are, please report them upstream (if they are VCSH related) or to me (here in AUR comments or or GitHub) for packaging issues.

Yeah I saw it was building from HEAD. I just know that people use automated tools that don't rebuild until there is a version bump. Of course, how you want to handle versions is up to you. Glad I could help.

Tagged release PKGBUILD now in AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/vcsh/

Thanks for the heads-up on mr->myrepos and GPL2+. I'll update the PKGBUILD later today. As for there being more recent tagged released, that is irrelevant as this PKGBUILD pulls the HEAD commit from git.

xaocon commented on 2013-09-23 17:17 (UTC)

the optdepends for this has changed names to myrepos both on the site and in the AUR. This should also probably get a version bump as there have been tagged releases since this one.

BTW, the license is GPL2+, not GPL2.

Hi chetgray, that layout makes a lot of sense. I obviously release when I feel that there's a need, but HEAD in master is always usable, so... Thanks for the update, Richard

Thanks, RichiH. The PKGBUILD automatically pulls in the HEAD from your github repo, so people building pkgs from it will always have the latest updates. AUR's web interface parses out the version from the PKGBUILD itself, so 2013.04.23_11.42_0871cff-1 is just when I last updated the PKGBUILD, not what version of vcsh is packaged. It is trivial to peg the PKGBUILD to a particular commit. In fact, I have a branch of the PKGBUILD that pulls only the latest tagged release commit from your git repo, not the HEAD commit. At some point I'll upload it to AUR as a 'vcsh' PKGBUILD, keeping this one as vcsh-git for those folks who want a devel version of vcsh.

Upstream here. I didn't know my versioning scheme caused issues on your side, sorry for that. FWIW, I decided to switch back to a date-based one. There've been a few upstream releases since the last package update to AUR and I would obviously like to see the most current one make its way into AUR. If you need a version with a pre-compiled manpage, look at the homebrew branch. If you need your own release branch and/or prefer a more neutral name than homebrew for that branch, please let me know. I will try to monitor this page, but poking me on IRC or GitHub is more reliable. Thanks

Cheers, joni. I've already made some of that changover, but haven't upped the result. I'll incorporate yours and upload shortly.

I edited the PKGBUILD to use the new vcsh handling in makepkg: http://pastebin.com/Wx0pGs6f No pkgver hacks needed anymore.
