After the fix for the metadata for the latter one, it is important to inform the users of the *tar* service that metadata is kept only if the flag *package-metadata* is enabled. Add the flag to the .service file for mentioning that. - Allow metadata packing for CPIO archives when desired As of now, metadata are always excluded from *obscpio* packages. This is because the *package-metadata* flag is ignored; this change (should) make *obscpio* aware of it. - improve handling of corrupt git cache directories - only do git stash save/pop if we have a non-empty working tree (#228) - don't allow DEBUG_TAR_SCM to change behaviour (#240) - add stub user docs in lieu of something proper (#238) - Remove clone_dir if clone fails - python-unittest2 is only required for the optional make check - move python-unittest2 dep to test suite only part (submission by olh) - Removing redundant pass statement - missing import for logging functions. - [backend] Adding http proxy support - python-unittest2 is only required for the optional make check - make installation of scm's optional - add a lot more detail to README - Git clone with --no-checkout in prepare_working_copy - Refactor and simplify git prepare_working_copy - Only use current dir if it actually looks like git (Fixes #202) - reactivate test_obscpio_extract_d - fix broken test create_archive - fix broken tests for broken-links - changed PREFIX in Gnumakefile to /usr - new cli option --skip-cleanup - fix for broken links - fix reference to snapcraft YAML file - fix docstring typo in TarSCM.scm.tar.fetch_upstream - acknowledge deficiencies in dev docs - wrap long lines in README This update was imported from the SUSE:SLE-15:Update update project.
