### Contents
## Contents
### [tools](tools)
Various shell tools, bundled in a custom `archtools` package. See [PKGBUILD](tools/PKGBUILD) and contents of shell tools for details.
### [pacman](pacman)
**DISCLAIMER**: These modifications are fully compliant with Pacman version `5.1.3-1`. Newer versions have not been tested.
## TODO - unfinished descriptions here!
| File | Description | Permissions |
|------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------|
| `/usr/local/bin/makepkg` | Get sources without security checks; Ask user whether to install missing deps automatically; Prompt whether to enforce package compilation without missing deps; Implement support for `--getsource` parameter (works with, and requires [getsource](tools/getsource.sh) command) | `0755` |
| `/usr/local/bin/pacmankeycheck.sh` | Check age of Pacman PGP/GPG public key ring files and prompt updating them during `pacman` execution if they are too old (30 days). | `0644` |
| `/usr/local/bin/pacman` | A simple wrapper which runs `pacmankeycheck.sh` and then your original `pacman` command. | `0755` |
| `/usr/share/makepkg/source/git.sh` | Modified `makepkg` source file; allow use of additional `git` command parameters. | `0644` |
| `/usr/share/makepkg/source.sh` | Modified `makepkg` source file; use shallow git repository cloning (parameter `--depth 1`) instead of cloning full git repository when downloading package source code with `makepkg`. This is useful with large packages when only the most recent files from them are wanted and full git repository cloning mode is not desired. | `0644` |
- **tools/getsource.sh**
- What: Retrieve necessary build time files, such as PKGBUILD + patches, from remote Arch/AUR package repositories
- As you execute this script, it asks for the package name on remote repository. Be exact. Default name is the name of your current working directory.
- The script downloads the files to the current working directory.
File paths above represent the intended deployment location on your Arch Linux file system.
