Currently, there are 2 add-on-releated repositories for SuperTux - addons and addons-src. "Addons" contains the add-on archive files, downloaded by SuperTux, while "addons-src" contains the source files for those add-ons. For a user to update or add an add-on, they have to make their respective changes in both repositories.
"Addons-src" doesn't seem to currently have a use. If a user wants to access/modify the source files for an addon, they can download the .zip archive through the "Add-on Manager" in-game, or through the "addons" repository, and then view/extract/modify the contents of the respective archive directly.
The benefits of having 1 add-ons repository would be:
Easier orientation for new users, who want to help with add-on maintenance, or add/modify an add-on.
Not having to make changes or additions to add-ons in two separate repositories, but rather have everything in one place. Should help make maintenance a tiny bit easier.
No risk of having differences between add-ons, or storing an older version of an add-on in one of the repositories.
I may also be missing something, but am still creating this issue to allow for discussions, revolving around this. Thanks!
