pacstall: Add a repository to the database (only GitHub and GitLab are supported).
$ pacstall --add-repo ${remote_repository_location}
try on your machine
The command "pacstall --add-repo ${remote_repository_location}" is used to add an external repository to the pacstall package manager.
Here's a breakdown of each component of the command:
- "pacstall": It refers to the pacstall package manager. It is a command-line tool used to manage packages on Linux distributions, particularly those based on Debian.
- "--add-repo": It is an option or flag used to specify that we want to add a new repository to pacstall.
- "${remote_repository_location}": It is a placeholder for the actual location of the repository you want to add. You need to replace it with the URL or path to the repository you wish to include in pacstall. This could be a remote repository hosted elsewhere or a local repository stored on your machine or network.
By using this command, you are instructing pacstall to add a new repository, allowing you to access and install packages from that repository using the pacstall package manager.
