Aptly is a swiss army knife for Debian repository management.

It allows to: ("+" means planned features)

* make mirrors of remote Debian/Ubuntu repositories, limiting by components/architectures
* take snapshots of mirrors at any point in time, fixing state of repository at some moment of time
* publish snapshot as Debian repository, ready to be consumed by apt
* merge two or more snapshots into one (+)
* filter repository by search query, pulling dependencies when required (+)
* controlled update of one or more packages in snapshot from upstream mirror, tracking dependencies (+)
* publish self-made packages as Debian repositories (+)

Currently aptly is under heavy development, so please use it with care.
