tar is slower and harder to diff. I doubt any one still uses it intentially.
There's a chance some people have not cleared their cache in two years
and still have tar based packages around. But forcing them to clear
their cache is not a big deal at all.
As mentioned it is possible for stuff to clash in cache if you were to
-G a package from the repos, then -S an AUR package by the same name. To
avoid that give abs cloning its own directory.
It is still possible for a clash to occur if there was a package named
abs. However currently there is not.
Idealy the aur cloning would also get it's own subdir, but that will
invalidate everyone's cache so leaving it for a time with more breaking
changes.
This is also under its own config option so that AURDEST does not
interfere with it.
After building an AUR package don't install it right away. Instead queue
it for install.
Then when a package comes along that does not have all of its
dependencies satisfied, install the queued packages before builting.
This allows a standard AUR update to be done with one transaction, while
building AUR packages with long dependency chains will work as normal.
This feature is behind the `--batchinstall` flag.
Comit 2d6fe95903 renamed the Yay specific
flag -P/--print to -P/--show. The rename caused --print to stop being
accepted as it was no longer in the list of accepted args.
isArg() was generated from pacman's manpage using a script. All dashes
were stripped out. Some flags used '-' as a seperator and were stripped
out by mistake.
This makes more sense and falls in line with the structs value which has
always been cleanafter. afterclean is still useable for compatibility
but is undocumented.
Split functions out into smaller, more simple chunks. Ensure the correct
order of things.
Before, initConfig() would also create config.BuildDirbefore
the command line flags have been applied, so yay would
try to mkdir what was in the config, ignoring the flag.
This is simply implemented by looking up against all the args. No
conflicts are checked such as using -Ss and -Si at the same time or using
-u with -D.
Normaly we only pass --config to pacman if the user specifies it on the
command line. Otherwise we let pacman use it's default config location.
If the user has changed pacmanconf in Yay's config file then this could
cause a miss match between the config we use to init alpm and the config
pacman is using.
Currently we do not handle -Sp, this leads to yay trying a proper
install and failing. So instead pass it to pacman and exit. Ideally we
would extend -Sp to include AUR packages but for now don't bother.
As it turns out, the times you need root also tend to be the time you
need to manipulate the database. So the needWait() function can be
removed and repllaced by needRoot()
* Wait for db.lck to become available before starting a db operation
* Fix err!=nil issues and avoid spamming users
* Remove redundant cases
* Remove return
