* modules/past/packages/assembly.scm: New file.
---

This patch adds quite a few old versions of RGBDS. The project has quite
a history of small, possibly accidental breaking changes. As a
measurement of the necessity of this many different versions, I looked
into the git history of the Game Boy homebrew project that inspired this
addition.

The repository (which is unfortunately private) goes back to the days
of 0.2.5, and for almost all versions in that time range, there exists
a git commit that requires it.

I am on the fence on including versions 0.3.4 and 0.3.6. Their changelog
on GitHub was updated to warn of silent bugs with miscompilation
potential, and are what the 'almost' above accounts for ;)
I decided to omit them in the patch, hoping that this will prevent a
lost soul or two from tripping over those dangerous (in terms of
potential time loss) bugs.

I did not include versions 0.1.0 and 0.1.1, as they fail to compile and
I have no idea why.

This is my first patch for guix-past, so any review remarks specific to
pastraising are very much appreciated :)

Regards,
Jakub Kądziołka

Nothing to say, this LGTM, nice work!

You should now have a gitlab.inria.fr account.  We need to add you to
‘.guix-authorizations’; will you use the same OpenPGP key as in Guix?

Thanks,
Ludo’.

Done!  You should be able to push now.  Please do install the pre-push
hook as noted in ‘README.md’, and let me know if anything is amiss.

Thanks,

Thank you. It seems that I don't have GitLab-level permissions for the
repository, though. I tried to find the widget that lets me copy the
ssh:// URL for pushing, but couldn't. I did see a "Request access"
link, though. I clicked it, so you should see an access request in your
notifications soon.

Oops, my bad.  Access granted now, lemme know how it goes!

I think we're making progress:

remote: GitLab: You are not allowed to push code to protected branches on this project.
To ssh://gitlab.inria.fr/guix-hpc/guix-past.git
 ! [remote rejected] master -> master (pre-receive hook declined)
error: failed to push some refs to 'ssh://gitlab.inria.fr/guix-hpc/guix-past.git'

If I'm understanding this correctly, pushing to master requires the
Maintainer permission. Would you like me to open a Merge Request
instead, or would you rather give me the Maintainer permission?

Bah, I always forget about that.  You should be allowed to push now.
Ping me on IRC if not!
