This also provides a config option to override that default. ~/.cache is
a standard location on GNU/Linux machines for cached content. It is also
good to have the cache outside of the git repo in case `git clean -fdx` is
run, which would delete all files in the directory that are not part of the
git repo, including buildserver/cache/
This makes it so that ./makebuildserver will run without any config file,
using the defaults that are embedded in the script itself. This is like
how `fdroid` works.
This host automatically detects which is the closest mirror, then uses that
one. It does so dynamically, so it'll work on machines that move too. Now
that we are pushing more people to run F-Droid build servers, the defaults
should take those use cases into account.
This keeps the numbers of names down to a minimum, and since the config
is placed right next to the script, this keeps tab completion working
nicely when the config file is in place.
The old file name is still supported.
I really hope I can revert this in the near future. Having to mutilate
my name just so that pip will work is a terrible workaround.
For better or worse, this only affects scripts defined in setup.py.
Since we only sorted by count, ignoring the string, it meant that items
with the same count might be arranged in different manners. Hence the
`stats` behaviour was not predictable at all. Now it sorts first by
count, then by string.
It is a good idea in theory, especially for extra tasks specified by the
user. But in practice, tasks specified by developers often don't have a
clean counterpart. So this just breaks the build.
We were passing the utf-8 encoded string to textwrap, which took the
bytes as characters. Hence multi-byte unicode characters (in utf-8)
would count as multiple columns, which is clearly wrong.
Add Author Name and Author Email fields. (Closes: #90)
Adds the two new fields as discussed in issue #90. Both are optional.
Mind that the Wiki template needs to be extended before merging.

This breaks on newer plugin versions. Instead of complicating this logic
even further to support them, upstream devs should instead use gradle
configs that actually work.
If their build fails because of lint, it's theirs to fix, not ours.
docs: Add information on binary verification
I added a section about `Binaries:` metadata field. However, my information might be wrong or outdated, since I barely used it by now. Maybe even this field was left out on purpose...
See merge request !83
This allows us to run checks and fix types only on those that were
really modified. On our fdroiddata repo, with 2k apps with many unset
fields and flags, this reduces readmeta runtime from ~1.3s to ~1.1s.
Avoids typos, such as one I just found which was 'strsng' isntead of
'string'. The static analyzer can catch those if they are constants.
Comparing ints is also faster than strings, which adds up in readmeta.
