Probably feasible, but it'd be a pain in the ass to update PKGBUILDs for AUR

and cloning all the packages, so it's really only centralized because no one 
bothers mirroring it. I really don't see why you'd want to share it over bit

Ah, that makes sense, especially with trying to make it secure. Once a PKGBUILD 
updated, it would have to be updated on several instances before it would be 
considered valid. The idea of mirroring based on git sounds interesting though.

Thanks,
