Tutorial

First you need to clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/semissioncontrol/repos.git
Then you need to change into the repository directory:
cd repo/repo
Then make a directory for the package:
mkdir repo/repo/foo
Then change into that:
cd foo
Then, in your packages directory, make a new file called quantum.lua
Now, we define the package:
For a package downloaded from git,

package = {
  name = "foo",
  version = "source",
  source = "https://foo.bar/foo.git",
  git = true
}

For a package downloaded as a tarball,

package = {
  name = "foo",
  version = "1.2",
  source = "https://foo.bar/foo-1.2.tar.gz",
  git = false
}

And for dependencies:

dependencies = {
	"[pkg]",
	"[pkg2]"
}

Now we define the build steps:

function build()
	make()
end

And now the install:

function install()
  quantum_install("foobar")
end

Note: quantum_install moves a file to the final directory
Note: To run a shell command use os.execute("[command]")
