[Release] Stashing for 9.2-9.3.3! Get more space on your device for tweaks!

I have released Stashing for 9.2-9.3.3 on my repo at http://bit.ly/2aaXHqA (mind the https).

The name sounds a bit interesting so I'll explain how this works.

Explanation of how it works

This is not the same as traditional stashing

Traditional stashing would normally have Cydia move several folders with iOS system components (Apps, Wallpapers, Ringtones, etc) to /var/stash to make space on the system partition. Basically Cydia would normally stash folders Apple placed there for iOS. This has broken on iOS 8.3 and newer and has thus required patcyh to work. Patcyh, however, requires a fully working untether, and hence traditional stashing is dangerous in a semi-untethered environment.

This package, however, does things differently. Rather than stashing what's already there, we stash what we're going to put there. This means, that rather than stash iOS system components, we stash the tweaks and themes from Cydia instead. This is much safer than traditional stashing, especially in a semi-untethered environment.

Why is this important?

Devices may not have enough space to install tweaks on iOS 9.2 - 9.3.3 normally.

This is what we've observed regarding the system partition:

• 16 GB: 68 MB free space
• 32 GB: around 200 MB free space
• 64 GB: around 500 MB free space
• 128 GB: around 1.2 GB free space (lucky you)

Hence why it is important, especially on 16 or 32 GB devices and potentially even 64 GB, that we stash something over to the data partition. This package stashes your tweaks so they install to the data, rather than system partition

This package moves tweaks over to the data partition which has far more space, allowing more tweaks to be installed.
