6 bpkg-rep-add - add repository to configuration
7
9 bpkg rep-add|add [options] rep-loc...
10
12 The rep-add command adds the specified package repositories to the con‐
13 figuration. The repository location rep-loc is a URL or a directory
14 path. If a repository with the same canonical name already exists in
15 the configuration, then its location is replaced with the specified.
16 Note that this command doesn't fetch the list of available packages for
18 the newly added repository. For that, use the bpkg-rep-fetch(1) com‐
19 mand, normally, after adding all the repositories you wish to use.
20 Currently three types of repositories are supported: archive-based pkg,
22 directory-based dir, and version control-based git. See bpkg-reposi‐
23 tory-types(1) for details on their structure and URL format.
24 Normally the repository type can be automatically guessed by examining
26 its URL (for example, the presence of the .git extension) or, in case
27 of a local repository, its content (for example, the presence of the
28 .git/ subdirectory). Without any identifying information the pkg type
29 is assumed unless explicitly specified with the --type option or in the
30 URL scheme. Note, however, that the dir repository type is never
31 guessed since it is not easily distinguishable from local pkg and git
32 repositories.
