Github

Arch Linux ARM uses the ABS and AUR for nearly all of its packages. However, some packages require tweaks to build and run properly on ARM devices. The PKGBUILDs for those packages are modified from the upstream version and placed into our Git repository. They are kept up to date daily with the rest of the packages, and may move in or out of git depending on (in)compatible changes from the upstream release.

Viewing the Git Repository
To view our Github page in a web browser, visit https://github.com/archlinuxarm/PKGBUILDs.

Clone the Repository
To clone the repository, having installed git ("pacman -Sy git" on Arch Linux ARM), you can run the following command. The files will be placed into a folder named "PKGBUILDs".
git clone git://github.com/archlinuxarm/PKGBUILDs.git PKGBUILDs

Requesting Changes to our PKGBUILDs or Submitting New PKGBUILDs
You have several options for submitting changes to code using Github. You can either file a bug report in the GitHub issue tracker or comment on either a PKGBUILD file or on lines in a file. You can also create a pull request. If you want to help the team with making new packages, hop into IRC!
