Now xut works in merged repository which is nice
But how to handle updating templates in their origin repo?

eq: I will update in merged repo some template from abyss
I want to push changes also to abyss to make PR to your origin repo (or hyprland etc..)

I am not sure what is the problem. The repos are synced and the merged dir is created in every run - maybe there is a bug there? Can you be more specific please?

i am working in ./xut/_void-linux_void-packages repo

update some templates which older version is in abyss-packages

looking for easier way to copy updated template dir to "source" repo for creating MR there

xut could handle:
delete old template dir in abyss (maybe i deleted some no longer needed patch) and then copy updated dir with templates/patches to abyss (or any other xtra repo)

for that we need to track where is origin of template
void, abyss or another extra repo

xut is meant to use third-party template repos.
If you try to add the functionality you describe it can easily blow up in size and complexity. I do not want that.
Having said that, reusing the directory structure, cloned repos, even xutconf and some functions from xut makes perfect sense for a companion script 👍
xutup maybe? 😛
