[gentoo-dev] [kde overlay] Up for grabs: dev-util/arcanist

KDE project has moved away from the unloved Phabricator instance to GitLab 
(invent.kde.org), so there is no reason for us to keep this package in kde 
overlay for much longer.

If for some reason you still rely on kde overlay providing this package, 
consider picking it up now and maintain it in gentoo.git or your own place.

Regards,
Andreas

I use this tool for my work. Is it in a fashion to push it to gentoo.git?
If yes, I can proxy maintain it.

If I get it right, there is not real installation, but only "copy all in opt and symlink the binary".
Is is meaningful to make a fake version like arcanist-2020.05.19?

Actually, I forgot that it is one of those upstreams not doing releases at 
all. Rather than inventing versions or having a 9999-only package in 
gentoo.git, the best place would be guru overlay for it:
