Re: how to handle source code from github

Thanks!

Would you know how to make upstream provide the tarball? Is it something as simple as creating a tarball and dumping it to git?

I have four packages on Fedora. I would like to put in another four for review and adoption.

THanks again!

Hi!
There is a good section about packaging git hosted software at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:SourceURL?rd=Packaging/SourceURL#Git_Hosting_Services

If you are not already a package maintainer you should follow the
instructions at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Join_the_package_collection_maintainers

Cheers,
Florian
