I've already looked into doing that in the future when maintaining
active non-vcs packages.

For most software, curl & git will probably suffice i think.

Hey Rob,

ah I see... thanks for the fast handling of my feedback :P

I would recommend taking a look at a way to track upstreams for release
tarballs/tags beyond that...

there is a big amount of tools to achieve this (trying not to turn this
thread into an advertisement-repy-war so not mentioning any).

For projects hosted on git i find it handy to have some of them
observing 'git ls-remote --tags https://someurl.foo/project.git'.


I recommand having something in place to track maintained packages.

cheers,
Levente

The ones i've submitted the patches to notified me via email on
merge/activity (GitHub default),
and my current non-vcs packages don't update very frequently - so beyond
occasionally checking
upstream, i'm not doing anything special yet.

You're welcome.


BTW: How are you tracking upstream updated so you can bump your packages
 before someone flags them?

cheers,
Levente
