You could use the git option to not download the whole history. (Can’t remember it’s name.) William.

Hi,

I am packaging some of your software for Arch Linux. For that, I need to fetch the source tree I want to build. The problem is that there's no need to fetch the whole git repository to build a specific tag. As a solution, I propose that compressed files from every tag would be available, like GitHub releases. Please let me know if this is something you would consider doing.

Hi Filipe, please be a bit careful not to inadvertedly DDOS the OSMOCOM cgit server in case a lot of people want to build your recipe, but: https://git.osmocom.org/osmo-fl2k/snapshot/osmo-fl2k-%{git_commit}.tar. gz Best regards, Marcus On Sat, 2018-05-26 at 19:47 +0100, Filipe Laíns wrote:
