Gemini seems awesome! The way -git (and -hg, et al.) build scripts work in the AUR (which doesn't contain any packages: it's a repository of build scripts you can use to build Arch packages) is that the only time they need to get updated on the site is if the build instructions change. When a user builds the package with Arch's packaging tools, the latest git (or whatever) is automagically fetched from the repository listed in the $source variable in the PKGBUILD, and the version of their newly-built local package is updated to reflect that. Cheers, Ivy
