Re: [gentoo-dev] Deprecating repoman

[Matthias Maier]

Just a quick though:

Looking at the man page of repoman it doesn't look to difficult to
replicate the behavior with pkgcheck. Meaning, we could think of
creating a drop-in replacement for "repoman [full]" (which would just
call pkgcheck) and "repoman commit" which actually does much more than
just prepending the git commit summary line: repoman commit does

   - update the manifest
   - bail out if files are not correctly "git add"ed
   - add the output of [pkgcheck] as a comment to the git commit
     description

Best,
Matthias
