Summary and Info:

The idea is you should be able to back up all packages source code. Problem is --allsource doesn't do that with VCS sources. This would allow all source code to backed up.

Also i would like a repack option of the all source code. This would have to recompress all .tar.bz2/.tar.gz/.zip files into .tar.xz. Maybe added a repack_md5sum to end of PKGBUILD. The idea is to be able recompress all source to fit better on a dvd that could be sold or save bandwidth if we back source up on server.

There is WIP patch i added for you guys to fix VCS. I have not got the source tars i made into .src.tar.gz files yet. You should also make makepkg look for these new sources.

Steps to Reproduce:
try to do this to subversion/cvs/git/hg package:
makepkg --allsource
It will not backup source code.

Not all of these variables are standard in makepkg right now, so this is 100% blocked until  FS#19476  goes in.

All the variables starting by an underscore all already in the devel_check function of makepkg. So I guess they're standard as far as I can see. This patch could be used to fix  FS#19476  as well by moving out the 'bsdtar -cjf'.
