# Devtools - development tools for Arch Linux
This repository contains tools for the Arch Linux distribution for building
and maintaining official repository packages.
## Patches
Patches can be send to arch-projects@archlinux.org or via a pull request on
Github. When sending patches to the mailing list make sure to set a valid
subjectprefix otherwise the email is denied by mailman. Git can be configured
as following.
```
git config format.subjectprefix 'devtools] [PATCH'
```
## Building
When building official distro packages the `BUILDTOOLVER` needs to be set to the
exact label of the release package in order to allow to detect the exactly used
devtools version. This is required for reproducible builds to fetch the according
files like `makepkg.conf`.
```sh
BUILDTOOLVER="${pkgver}-${pkgrel}-${arch}" make all
```
## Releasing
1. bump the version in the Makefile
2. Commit everything as ```Version $(date +"%Y%m%d")```
3. Create a new tag ```git tag -s $(date +"%Y%m%d")```
4. Push changes
5. Upload the source tarball with ```make dist upload```
6. Update the package
## License
Devtools is licensed under the terms of the **GPL-3.0-or-later** (see [LICENSE](LICENSE)).
