AUR

Create Package

• Create PKGBUILD
  • For git-packages something like printf 'r%s.%s' "$(git rev-list --count HEAD)" "$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)" works for the pkg version
• Run makepkg to build package
• Install package using pacman -U <package.pkg.tar.zst>
• If either steps fails or package does not work as expected repeat from 1

Submit to AU

• Clone git clone ssh://aur@aur.archlinux.org/<packageName>.git
• Create .SRCINFO using makepkg --printsrcinfo > .SRCINFO
• Add, commit and push to master

General
