I've written difftastic packaging instructions: https://difftastic.wilfred.me.uk/packaging_difftastic.html
The different distros have taken different approaches, so I'm trying to help with common gotchas — don't forget the man page!
Feedback welcome, especially if you've ever packaged something 🙂
I have a bunch of open tasks on my GH repos, so I tried asking ChatGPT and Claude to write a card-based web UI that showed some random open issues.
ChatGPT gave me something that worked, but the Claude mock-ups look better (and render inline!).
I really like the MELPA model of packaging directly from git. It solves the problem of forgetting to release something -- just merge a PR and you're done.
It also makes version number bumps much less important.
