Let's say I'm given a file name and I need to figure out whether it's considered as a source file by Arch or not. How can I do that efficiently [ i.e. in constant time ] ? Ideally this should work even if tla is not installed. The only way I could come up with is to do something akin to: tla inventory -s `dirname $file` | grep $file but this can take a long time.
