A tool for setting up and hosting an apt repository using arbitrary http/s hosts to make files accessible with extra features for git-enabled hosting sites. . This tool, currently called apt-now but soon to be changed to repo-now, is essentially a static site generator geared toward generating and formatting a specific type of content in a specific type of way, the content being GNU/Linux or Android/Linux binary packages, and the format being a signed repository accessible from the web or something like it (It can also, for instance, be used to statically host software repositories over i2p with no substantial modification.) It does this by taking advantage of the structural regularity of these types of resources and constructs the whole site on the client side, transmitting content to the server only after a valid repository has been built. This means that the server doesn't have to run any code at all to present the site to the end-user taking advantage of the resource over the web, doesn't need to support ssh or remote desktop, and doesn't even technically need to support ftp or git, as long as a way of transferring the repository to the remote storage service can be included in the program.
