18# Two licences, because the pieces are not ours: the six outlines in
19# moarchy_chess/pieces.py are Font Awesome Free's chess icons under CC BY 4.0,
20# which is an attribution licence and is attributed in the About dialog, the
21# README and the file itself. Everything else is MIT.
22#
23# The source tarball is assembled by packaging/release.sh from two subtrees of
24# one tag -- apps/chess and shared -- so it holds this app and the shared code
25# it uses and nothing else. That is what lets a monorepo keep per-app versions:
26# `git archive <tag>:<subdir>` means one repo does not mean one version number.
27#
28# Deliberately a versioned package rather than a -git one. mobileomarchy pins
29# each package by a commit; for a VCS package that pin governs the packaging and
30# says nothing about the code makepkg then clones at HEAD, so "pinned" would
31# read as reproducible without being it. A tarball with a checksum makes the pin
32# name the exact code, and gives pacman a version it can compare for upgrades.
33#
34# The source is a release asset built with `git archive`, not GitHub's
35# auto-generated archive: those are produced on demand, and a change to the
36# compression GitHub uses has broken every checksum pinned against them before.
