# trust: ...

If this is not an option then, instead, add this Git repository itself as a prerequisite.

role: prerequisite
location: https://github.com/build2-packaging/cxxopts.git

Add the respective dependency in your project's manifest file to make the package available for import.

depends: libcxxopts ^ 3.2.0

Import the library in your buildfile by using the following line.

import cxxopts = libcxxopts%lib{cxxopts}

Recommend Updating Version

Please, file an issue on GitHub with the new recommended version.

Update Version by Pull Request

  1. Fork the repository on GitHub and clone it to your local machine.
  2. Run git submodule init and git submodule update to get the current upstream directory.
  3. Inside the upstream directory, checkout the new library version X.Y.Z by calling git checkout vX.Y.Z that you want to be packaged.
  4. If needed, change source files, buildfiles, and symbolic links accordingly to create a working build2 package. Make sure not to directly depend on the upstream directory inside the build system but use symbolic links instead.
  5. Update library version in manifest file if it has changed or add package update by using +n for the n-th update.
  6. Make an appropriate commit message by using imperative mood and a capital letter at the start and push the new commit to the master branch.
  7. Run bdep ci and test for errors.
  8. If everything works fine, make a pull request on GitHub and write down the bdep ci link to your CI tests.
  9. After a successful pull request, we will run the appropriate commands to publish a new package version.
