1. Use tabs

2. Order of functions: prepare, build, check, package (the order they are

  executed)

3. No empty variables

4. Set Contributor and Maintainer

5. Commit message repo/package: X

X: new apk

X: upgrade to Y

X: [other changes]

6. Shell: quote variables

7. Rebase your changes

1. Set pkgrel to 0 when when pkgver is increased

2. Else bump pkgrel to trigger rebuild

3. Only add very common or required dependencies

4. Use post-install rarely, don't use it for anything that can be done during

  package()

5. New packages go to testing first

6. Use spdx license names: https://spdx.org/licenses/

7. main pacakges may only depend on main packages

  community packages may only depend on main/community package

1. Test APKBUILD against edge, not current

2. Make sure the software actually works

1. No downloads during build (is already prevented)

1. Don't use language-package managers (npm, pip, cabal): the build has to be

  reproducible
