The wiki says to minimize the amount the number of whitespaces, so I think I will leave it like this.

When I was testing it, it gave me an error that the files already exist, but after another test it seems what you are saying is true, so I'll remove it. > And if you actually want the *-git version to not include .r0.g<commit> > then you may want to remove --long from the `git describe` invocation in > pkgver() -- but personally I prefer it to be there. > As it is now, you seem to have manually removed it but it will > automatically be added back as soon as the PKGBUILD is used. I don't see a point in using the .r0.g suffix in the repo since I have a pkgver function that generates that automatically when the user builds the package. And whenever I update my code, I can just bump the pkgrel, which is much more convenient than figuring out the right suffix
