Omarchy Package Repository is a build system for managing a custom Arch User Repository (AUR). It automates the process of building packages from PKGBUILDs, signing them, and syncing them to production repositories. This system is essential for maintaining a reliable and up-to-date package repository with support for multiple release tiers and architectures.

Key Features

• Multi-Architecture Support — Builds packages for both x86_64 and aarch64 (ARM64) architectures, with optional QEMU emulation for ARM64 on x86_64 hosts.
• Tiered Package Management — Organizes packages into Stable (manual sync), Edge (daily sync with PR review), and Shared (6-hourly sync with auto-merge) tiers for controlled release cadences.
• Incremental Builds — The release command is smart and only builds packages that have changed or are missing, optimizing build times.
• Automated Dependency Resolution — Automatically parses and builds inter-package dependencies in the correct order using a temporary build repository.
• Automated Releases — Includes GitHub workflows and systemd services for automated package syncing and building on a scheduled basis.
• Local Patch Support — Allows maintaining modifications to AUR packages through patch files that are automatically applied during syncs.
• Version Management — Packages are only rebuilt if the PKGBUILD version is newer than the repository version or if the package doesn't exist in production.

Philosophy

The system is designed to be incremental and automated, minimizing manual intervention while providing clear control over package promotion and synchronization across different release channels.
