Hello,
The $Id$ keyword came up while talking with Angel and I realized that
the svn:keywords property doesn't get set on PKGBUILD for new packages,
and thus $Id$ doesn't get updated on commit. I believe we should fix
this, as this information is useful when determining when a PKGBUILD was
last modified and by whom.
May I suggest we do the following:
1) Edit the "Adding a package" section [1] of the packaging instructions
in the DeveloperWiki to include this step. (Adding `svn propset
svn:keywords "Id" new-package/trunk/PKGBUILD' below the $EDITOR line
perhaps?)
2) Add this property to all packages (this has been done once before by
Aaron, if I remember correctly).
What's your view on this?
