How To Get Latest Mesa-git ??

Since, Everyday new extensions are coming out for RadeonSI. I am willing to test it. Is there a way I can install latest mesa-git without compiling from source ? I mean, I don't mind compiling from source but compiling it everyday is sheer pain in bum. So, it their any repo which i can add in pacman.conf and can get latest mesa-git ??

Please guide.

Re: How To Get Latest Mesa-git ??

Just add to pacman.conf:

[mesa-git]
SigLevel = PackageOptional
Server = http://pkgbuild.com/~lcarlier/$repo/$arch

It's build against testing branch of Arch, so you should enable testing repository, too.
See: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Un … s#mesa-git and http://pkgbuild.com/~lcarlier/mesa-git/
For automatic upgrade, [mesa-git] repo, should be above of [testing] repo. After upgrade from mesa to mesa git - if you are looking for new extensions in radeon driver - you should manually install xf86-video-ati-git.

Created problems for me. Gnome launched with white screen saying unrecoverable error happened. No errors found in gdm logs nor dmesg. Not sure whats up with that. Reverted for now.
