[vulkano-edge]
location = /var/db/repos/vulkano-edge
sync-type = git
sync-uri = https://github.com/thequickfixer/vulkano-edge.git
masters = gentoo
auto-sync = yes

Afterwards run:

sudo emaint sync --repo vulkano-edge

How to install using layman

Update layman repos and add vulkano-edge as a repository:

How to emerge a version before v1.3.210

An example:

sudo emerge --ask =dev-util/vulkan-headers-1.3.209

For specifically this repo for whatever reason:

sudo emerge --ask =dev-util/vulkan-headers-1.3.209::vulkano-edge

Notes

• Doing emerge --sync should update the repo when updating gentoo
• For using an older package, Gentoo likes to update the package to the latest unless specified in /etc/portage/.. for more information visit the gentoo wiki to try and mitigate Gentoo from updating the package to v1.3.210 or later
