Package: dgit Version: 0.21 Severity: wishlist Now that the archive finally supports .deb-less uploads, dgit should be able to take it a step further, to .tar-less push.
I envision something like: dgit push --via somehost That would push the git repository as usual, then go to somehost and dgit clone, generate the source package, and feed its files and checksums back to the local dgit. The local dgit can then update the .dsc's checksums, update the .changes to contain the new .dsc checksum, sign the files, and scp both files to somehost. Finally, the dgit on somehost can dput the source package. The --via host would need to have dgit installed (probably), and should probably have the same version of dpkg-dev as the local host, to avoid skew issues (if the two hosts don't agree on the filenames that constitute the source package, dgit would probably need to give up). But it does *not* need to have the package's build deps installed, since only the source package is built there. -- see shy jo
