NAME
       pbget - retrieve PKGBUILDS and local source files


SYNOPSIS
       pbget [options] [packages]


DESCRIPTION
       Pbget  is a simple command-line tool for retrieving PKGBUILDs and local
       source files for Arch Linux. It is able	to  retrieve  files  from  the
       official SVN and CVS web interface, the AUR and the ABS rsync server.

       Note  that  "wget" is required for SVN, CVS and AUR support and "rsync"
       is required for ABS support.  Also  note	 that  "abs"  package  is  not
       required for the latter.


OPTIONS
       --abs  use the abs tree instead of svn (requires rsync)

       --arch=<architecture>

	      for using the ABS tree

       --aur  download files from the AUR if available

       --aur-only
	      only download from the AUR

       --dir=<path>
	      use <path> as the base directory for saved files

       --head retrieve the latest svn revision instead	of  the	 last  release
	      this only applies to core/extra

       --help display this message

       --upgradable
	      add all upgradable pkgs to the download queue

       --testing
