Hi
Please change this part of /etc/makepkg.conf

DLAGENTS=('ftp::/usr/bin/curl -fC - --ftp-pasv --retry 3 --retry-delay 3 -o %o %u'
'http::/usr/bin/curl -fLC - --retry 3 --retry-delay 3 -o %o %u'
'https::/usr/bin/curl -fLC - --retry 3 --retry-delay 3 -o %o %u'
'rsync::/usr/bin/rsync -z %u %o'
'scp::/usr/bin/scp -C %u %o')


to this:

DLAGENTS=(
'ftp::/usr/bin/curl -fC - --ftp-pasv --retry 3 --retry-delay 3 -o %o %u'
'http::/usr/bin/curl -fLC - --retry 3 --retry-delay 3 -o %o %u'
'https::/usr/bin/curl -fLC - --retry 3 --retry-delay 3 -o %o %u'
'rsync::/usr/bin/rsync -z %u %o'
'scp::/usr/bin/scp -C %u %o'
)


to minimize diff amount of pacnew file and make it easier to merge. For example if I have one string added to this array, the diff with pacnew should be only one line, not 5 lines (and no deletation).
This task depends upon

I'm not following the logic here. How is adding one line ever responsible for creating a 5-line diff?
