git-buildpackage
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
Use of the command `git-import-orig` from the git-buildpackage suite of
|
|
scripts is highly encouraged, as it makes for an easier maintenance of the
|
|
packaging.
|
|
|
|
When importing new upstream versions, it is recommended to run:
|
|
|
|
git-buildpackage --pristine-tar --uscan
|
|
|
|
so that most of the tasks are automated.
|
|
|
|
|
|
debian/gbp.conf
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
The `debian/*` files from the upstream tarball are filtered out (read:
|
|
"mostly ignored") because of divergences that create conflicts that are
|
|
difficult to merge.
|
|
|
|
That being said, it is a good thing to manually check what upstream changed
|
|
in their `debian` dir and adapt those changes to the Debian packaging, as
|
|
they may have changed build dependencies or other assumptions.
