This repo is adapted for use with archlinux ARM. The details below are valid, but remmeber to change some details to ARM mirrors etc.
archivetools is the project used to run the Arch Linux Archive. It's a turnkey solution to snapshot Arch Linux packages repositories, ISOs images and boostrap tarballs. You can deploy one for your own needs.
The Archive is built by rsync'ing rsync.archlinux.org, or its mirrors, each day. Rsync features are used to transfer only the diff of new data from the previous snapshot and files are stored once with use of hardlinks.
Create a pacman package and install it. Before the installation, install all dependencies.
