Add apt repository debian

This is an edited version of the add-apt-repository program, which allows debian to directly install Personal Package Archives (PPA) like ubuntu

Why?

Because I was tired of installing these packages manually, So i edited the program to make direct installation possible

Installation

sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
git clone https://github.com/Kamishiro-Kalina/add-apt-repository-debian
sudo cp add-apt-repository-debian/add-apt-repository-debian /usr/bin/add-apt-repository-debian

Usage

Just like on ubuntu, you can just type add-apt-repository-debian (ppa package name) to install the packages

Here is an example of installing Ulauncher

sudo add-apt-repository-debian ppa:agornostal/ulauncher
sudo apt update
sudo apt install ulauncher

The default installed version is focal, if you want to switch the installed version, you can use this option

sudo add-apt-repository-debian ppa:agornostal/ulauncher -c focal

You can also edit the file at /etc/apt/sources.list.d/add-apt-repository-debian/config to change the default installed version

You can replace the original command with the following code
Add the code to .bashrc, or .zshrc if you are using zsh

add-apt-repository() {
    command add-apt-repository-debian "$@"
}
sudo() {
    if [ "$1" = "add-apt-repository" ]; then
        shift
        command sudo add-apt-repository-debian "$@"
    else
        command sudo "$@"
    fi
}

Important

There is no guarantee that the ppa package is absolutely stable, the ppa package is not designed to be used by Debian

Any version of Ubuntu 21.10 and above (impish,jammy,kinetic) cannot be installed on debian, This is because debian's dpkg does not recognize the tar.zst format
