[Bug 1771481] [NEW] Provide Nightly PPA from Budgie Git Source

 

Public bug reported:

Would it be possible to mirror the Budgie GitHub code directly to a
Launchpad PPA to provide bleeding-edge nightly builds of Budgie?

A “git” package of Budgie is already available on AUR for Arch and Copr
for Fedora.

Right now the current Budgie desktop package in Ubuntu is 52 commits
behind, including a number of bug fixes.

There is not even an upstream version of Budgie in Cosmic undergoing any
testing.

A nightly PPA should be available so that advanced members of the Ubuntu
Budgie community can be testing upstream Budgie for inclusion in stable.

It would also satisfy the wishes of power-users.
