A (experimental) tool to create your own Arch Linux repository
We'll use cat ./packages.txt.example
as an example:
base
base-devel
linux
linux-firmware
sudo python -m myrepo --packages ./packages.txt.example
This will create a repo structure like so:
.

All dependencies from the four packages will be there.
--path
can override the base location of the repo from /srv/repo
to somewhere else.
--mirror-list
defaults to /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
and can be overriden.
