But in +reality, it opens a path to lots of creative output, and a better way to manage +multi-user repositories (such as KISS Community). + +When managing a repository of submodules, the repository maintainer's only job +is to deal with adding packages. A package maintainer doesn't have to wait for +the repository maintainer to update their packages, as they are only making the +changes to their own repositories. + +This way, an end-user can also track from their preferred maintainers, and do +that with the tidyness of a single repository in their =KISS_PATH=. + +Carbs Linux now has an outsource repository for some packages. Firefox and its +dependencies have been purged from the main repository, but can be found on it. + +[[https://github.com/CarbsLinux/outsource]] |
