• [Discussion] Would It Be Possible for Someone to Fork This and Update It for More Appropriate Archival Usage?
  2 projects | /r/jailbreak | 12 Sep 2022

  I decided to try my hand at making a local archive of my own containing repository contents that I utilize on my devices, however all the solutions that persist thus far are pretty rugged with how they work and their capabilities, the closest thing I stumbled on that works the best thus far is CyDownload (https://github.com/borishonman/cydownload). This tool allows you to download Debian packages from repositories directly onto your computer, which is perfect, however it's kind of buggy and lacks a lot of abilities to make what I want to happen more fluently. The first issue, you can't download in bulk, which makes the archival process a pain, I really don't want to give myself carpal tunnel syndrome doing repetitive clicks. The second issue, tweak descriptions, dependencies, etc. are not fetched like the Debian packages are at all, this is bad given you won't know the details about the tweak(s), dependencies required for the tweak(s) to work correctly on the devices, etc. The software is able to fetch older versions of tweaks too, however you have to manually set the version(s) you want to download (It's slightly buggy to play with), most cases you won't need to have older tweak versions, however I've had some cases where an older version of a tweak worked better or just worked period versus using the latest version of the same tweak. This software has potential for much more than what it is currently, sadly the developer behind it hasn't touched it since 2018, I don't foresee him or her returning to the project anytime soon, the existing forks are just forks of the latest commit from the original developer (likely forks for the sake of archival). I haven't been able to find any other reliable solutions that weren't dodgy and did the job appropriately.
