tar is slower and harder to diff. I doubt any one still uses it intentially.
There's a chance some people have not cleared their cache in two years
and still have tar based packages around. But forcing them to clear
their cache is not a big deal at all.
As mentioned it is possible for stuff to clash in cache if you were to
-G a package from the repos, then -S an AUR package by the same name. To
avoid that give abs cloning its own directory.
It is still possible for a clash to occur if there was a package named
abs. However currently there is not.
Idealy the aur cloning would also get it's own subdir, but that will
invalidate everyone's cache so leaving it for a time with more breaking
changes.
This is also under its own config option so that AURDEST does not
interfere with it.
As raised in #994, diff display was not proper when interrupting during
download or diff review.
This commit introduce:
- Add a ref in the git tree named "YAY_DIFF_REVIEW" which is set to the last
diff reviewed by the user.
- Change the function displaying diff to user to make proper use of this
new ref. If the ref does not exist in the git tree, it will display the
diff from origin to HEAD@{upstream}.
- Add a function updating the YAY_DIFF_REVIEW after it has been reviewed
by user. It uses the `toDiff` list in the `install` function.
- Add utils function related to handling this change in download.go.
This change only consider diff reviewed to update the YAY_DIFF_REVIEW ref.
If a user does not enable review, the ref will not be updated and the
user will be prompted for review when he enables diff review.

BuildDir resolves to same place as cacheHome by default but it's configurable which helps in case user want to chose different directory to store PKGBUILDS.
Previously each call to an external command had two functions.
PassToFoo() and PassToFooCapture(). These functions are always similar
and end up with duplicated code.
So instead have the passToFoo() functions return the cmd itself and
create small helper functions show() and capture() which will run the
command and either forward it to std{out,err,in} or capture the output
Also the saveVCSInfo() function which was called after every makepkg
call is now only called after the pacman -U succeeds.
Newly cloned packages already start out at origin/master, so there is no
diff to show. Track if we cloned a package and if so make sure to show
the full diff
This is what 5775e3..43d2a6 has been leading up to. Git fetch will be
called on all pkgbuilds, then the user is offered a chance to view the
diffs. If they choose to continue, merging happens. This allows users to
abort the install after viewing diffs and still be able to see thoes
diffs again if they try to install later on.
This also makes the git stuff a little more modular which should help in
organzing diff showing + pkgbuild editing.
diff viewing can be toggled via --[no]showdiffs. When enabled diffs will
be shown for packages between the current HEAD and upstream's HEAD.
Packages downloaded via tarballs will be shown in full using the editor
git diff is used to show diffs. Therefore the pager for diffs can be
set via the PAGER and GIT_PAGER enviroment variables.
