Added a new option that works like
-G, but except makes a (shallow) clone/pull of a package's AUR repository instead of downloading the snapshot tarball.This allows users to easily update a locally cloned package, without having to remove the previous copy first and doesn't keep any tarball clutter around, like with
-G.Currently using the
-Cflag (for clone), but that and the documentation can certainly be changed if needed.
