Hello,
If it eases the job of package maintainers for some GODI packages,
that look like a good thing then (since GODI doesn't have that much
manpower).
I think the version number should be a mandatory parameter, so that
people can't fall-back to using HEAD or the like.
Regards,
F.

Hi,
is it advisable to create Godi packages that check out a labeled
version from a version control system rather than download tarballs?
E.g. if I want to make a new release, I'd ideally just want to update
the version number in the Godi-Makefile rather than having to create a
tarball, upload it to some website, get its size and sha1sum, and
finally add this information to Godi. One downside would likely be
somewhat diminished security, since the sha1sum and size may not be
stable (the VC might use updated archive and compression tools to send
you a tarball).
Any ideas whether it's worthwhile for me to go into that direction, or
should I better stick to the old& trusted but more cumbersome way?
Regards,
Markus
