Malachite

Malachite is a simple yet useful workspace and local repository management tool, made for packagers of Arch Linux based distributions.

Action	Command
Build a package	mlc build <package> [all if left empty]
Generate local repository	mlc repo-gen
Update local repos/PKGBUILDs	mlc pull/update [all if left empty]
Create and/or open config file	mlc conf
Initialises repo/workspace based on config in mlc.toml	mlc clone/init

mlc config to create the config (and also populate it)
mlc init to build repository base from config file
mlc build <package> to either build individual packages, or don't specify package names to build all packages in mlc.toml
- build typically automatically updates the repository unless --no-regen is passed, if so:
mlc repo-gen to generate functional pacman repository at <name>/<name>.db from built packages

Tested on latest Cargo (1.60.0-nightly)
