These options were added before libmakepkg allowed passes like this to be
dropped in. I prefer only real core packaging tasks to be included in
makepkg and additional things like this to be dropped in by a user or
distribution that wants to support them.

This is partial revert of 8454daa7fe (makepkg: run pkgver() and
prepare() with --noextract).
Reasoning for the reversion (copied from FS#43498):
Running prepare() when --noextract is used no longer allows running
'makepkg -o && makepkg -e' with any PKGBUILD that applies patches in
prepare(). [1]
Sure there's --noprepare which restores the old behavior, but that's
a lot of extra typing for what I believe is a much more common use
of --noextract.
For OP's use case of doing git bisects, you can specify the commit
in the source array and thus skip --noextract since makepkg will
checkout the correct commit each time.
[1] I often extract the sources using 'makepkg -o', manually edit
some source files, and then use 'makepkg -e' to package it (while
possibly repeating the edit/package steps).

makepkg only considers global {make,}depends when checking require packages
are installed before building.
Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>
Modifications made to the source before running with --noextract may alter
the version string returned by pkgver(). Always run this function if present
and check build status before proceeding. Fixes FS#46800.
Also run prepare() when --noextract is used (unless --noprepare is specified).

The "Description" field allows a hook to provide a some text for frontends
to use in describing what the hook is doing. For example:
Description = updating info page directory

At some point back in 2009, logging was expanded to cover all of the packaging
functions, but the man page was not updated to reflect that. Fix that!

This commit adds a makepkg option to generate and print the SRCINFO file
for a PKGBUILD, required by the new AUR, to stdout.
AUR 4.0 will use Git instead of source tarballs for uploading packages,
so making makepkg capable of printing the SRCINFO would simplify package
management, instead of having to extract it from a source tarball.
It is also useful for scripting other things, so that instead of having
to parse PKGBUILDs, one can make makepkg generate the SRCINFO and then
you can parse that instead, which is much simpler and less error-prone.

The old text could be interpreted such that makepkg-template compares
the version numbers of the templates to find the most recent
one. Rephrase this to make it explicit that "$template_name.template" is
used.

Especially when maintaining local templates in addition to the ones
stored in /usr/share/makepkg-template, it can be useful to include
templates stored in multiple different locations into one PKGBUILD. This
patch makes this possible by allowing --template-dir to be specified
multiple times.
This also introduces a dedicated error message when a template cannot be
found, in contrast to the already existing "Couldn't detect version for
template '%s'".
If a template of the same name is present in more than one of the given
directories, the last one always takes precedence.
Neither the default behaviour without the option given, nor the handling
of a single template dir is changed.

makepkg --packagelist prints the name of each package that would
normally be produced, minus $PKGEXT, and exits.

This can decrease package size by optimizing PNG image size. Images are
just stored with better compression and/or filter options. The actual
image content is not altered.
Additionally this can automatically fix broken PNG images which caused
some trouble lately.

Leave user files in place and save new config files with a .pacnew
extension. This reduces the complexity of file extraction and respects
the principle that pacman shouldn't modify files it didn't create.

--confirm cancels the effect of a previous --noconfirm.
This makes it easier for scripts to default to --noconfirm
but allow users to override it.
