## Pull Requests
|
|
* Pull requests should have a title that gives the package name the PR is for, and a short description about the PR.
|
|
* The body of the PR should contain a **detailed** description of what changes are being introduced, and most importantly, *why* this PR should be merged.
|
|
* PRs must be for a single package only. A PR addressing multiple packages without merit risks having a delayed merge or being closed.
|
|
* Ensure your PR addresses three of the most common problems:
|
|
* Correctly update the pkgver or pkgrel of the package (see below).
|
|
* Update the checksums if external files have been added or modified.
|
|
* Is the package only for specific architectures? Set the `buildarch` variable (see [the README](https://github.com/archlinuxarm/PKGBUILDs/blob/master/README.md))
|
|
|
|
### New Packages
|
|
* If the pull request is for a new package, review the [README](https://github.com/archlinuxarm/PKGBUILDs/blob/master/README.md) to ensure the package is going into the correct repository and meets all the stated requirements.
|
|
|
|
### Existing packages
|
|
#### Upstream x86 Arch Linux packages
|
|
* If you changed the PKGBUILD or related files, detail your changes in the comment header at the top.
|
|
* Increment the pkgrel variable by a decimal number. This is to prevent interference tracking against upstream versions. For example:
|
|
* If `pkgrel=1`, change to `pkgrel=1.1`
|
|
* If `pkgrel=1.1`, change to `pkgrel=1.2`
|
|
* At no time should an upstream package tracked here exceed the version upstream.
|
|
* If the package is only supposed to be built for a specific architecture, ensure the `buildarch` variable is set correctly (see [the README](https://github.com/archlinuxarm/PKGBUILDs/blob/master/README.md))
|
|
|
|
#### Arch Linux ARM specific packages
|
|
* If the change increases the version of the package, ensure `pkgver` is updated and `pkgrel` is reset to 1.
|
|
* Otherwise, increment `pkgrel` by 1.
|
|
* If the package is only supposed to be built for a specific architecture, ensure the `buildarch` variable is set correctly (see [the README](https://github.com/archlinuxarm/PKGBUILDs/blob/master/README.md))
