Package: git-buildpackage
Version: 0.5.10
Severity: normal
Dear Guido,
When building dpatch-based packages, it will often happen that the build fails:
> dh_clean
> You have uncommitted changes in your source tree:
> # On branch byte
> # Changed but not updated:
> # (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
> # (use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
> #
> # modified: debian/patches/028_fnmatch_CVE-2011-0419.dpatch
> # modified: debian/patches/029_fnmatch_CVE-2011-1928.dpatch
> #
> no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a")
>
> Use --git-ignore-new to ignore.
The diff will often be trivial:
> diff --git a/debian/patches/028_fnmatch_CVE-2011-0419.dpatch
b/debian/patches/028_fnmatch_CVE-2011-0419.dpatch
> old mode 100644
> new mode 100755
> diff --git a/debian/patches/029_fnmatch_CVE-2011-1928.dpatch
b/debian/patches/029_fnmatch_CVE-2011-1928.dpatch
> old mode 100644
> new mode 100755
Can you please ignore the filemodes in debian/patches/?
Thanks,
Allard Hoeve
