Build Options
-------------

*--arch* 'ARCH'::
	Specify architectures to build for (disables auto-detection)

*--repo* 'REPO'::
	Specify a target repository (disables auto-detection)

*-s, --staging*::
	Build against the staging counterpart of the auto-detected repo

*-t, --testing*::
	Build against the testing counterpart of the auto-detected repo

*-o, --offload*::
	Build on a remote server and transfer artifacts afterwards

*-c, --clean*::
	Recreate the chroot before building

*-I, --install* 'FILE'::
	Install a package into the working copy of the chroot

*--inspect* 'WHEN'::
	Spawn an interactive shell to inspect the chroot after building. Useful to ease the debugging of a package build. +
	Possible values for 'WHEN' are `'never'`, `'always'` or `'failure'`

*-w, --worker* 'SLOT'::
	Name of the worker slot, useful for concurrent builds. By default the slot
	is automatically assigned to the current tty pts number. In case the caller
	is not a tty, choose a random slot between 1 and number of available
	processing units.

*--nocheck*::
	Do not run the check() function in the PKGBUILD

	Set pkgver, reset pkgrel and update checksums

*--update-checksums*::
	Force computation and update of the checksums by disabling auto-detection. +
	Should only be used in special circumstances, like when adding new patch

	or should remain immutable during rebuilds.

	Edit the PKGBUILD before building
