• Example package
• Generating checksums
• Committing changes
• Pull requests
• Linting
• Code style

A simple package to use as a reference is file. It has dependencies and uses the GNU configure style (which a lot of packages use).

https://github.com/kisslinux/community/tree/master/community/file

Once you have packaged something (and before the first build) run kiss checksum pkg to generate checksums for the package.

One package per commit unless the packages are very closely related (linux and linux-headers).

Commit rules:

• New packages: <package>: new package at <version>
• Existing packages: <package>: update to <version>, <package>: bump to <version> is also acceptable.
• Other package changes: <package>: <changes>
• Merges: GitHub's default format is acceptable, or just Merge #<PR number> should suffice.
• Misc: We leave that to the discretion of the author and/or committer.

Ensure that the package builds successfully on your system before creating a pull request. If for some reason it does not, open an issue if assistance is needed.

All package build and post-install scripts are subject to checks using shellcheck. Packages must pass the linter to be accepted into the repository. Exceptions can be made using shellcheck disable=SCXXXX with good reason.

• Indentation is 4 spaces.
• Keep variables lowercase unless they're environment variables.
• Use #!/bin/sh -e.
• Use /usr as the prefix.
