Is there an equivalent to arch's asp package? I use the following script to
pull from https://github.com/artix-linux (asp is much more comfortable but seems
to know nothing about system/world/galaxy):
#!/bin/bash
BUILDDIR="${BUILDDIR:-$HOME/ARTIX}"
mkdir -p $BUILDDIR
for dir in $BUILDDIR/{system,world,galaxy}; do
[[ -d $dir ]] && {
cd $dir
git reset --hard HEAD
git pull
} || {
cd $BUILDDIR && \
git clone https://github.com/artix-linux/`basename $dir`
}
done
This works perfectly but may become a strain on your servers if more people use
something like this and the number of packages increases (that's why the arch
people replaced abs with asp, which has sparse checkout - every package has its
own .git folder).
No there isn't, yet, and I haven't even looked at asp's code to see how easy would it be to convert it for Artix. Any contributions would be welcome.
About your server load now, I believe Github can handle a couple of thousand of Artix users pulling and cloning all together. :)
