Hey Manphiz, Thanks for the patch!
However, looking at https://salsa.debian.org/emacsen-team/boxquote-el I see we have an 'upstream' branch in the repo, for tracking latest upstream commits. But it appears that for your MR you essentially cherry-picked the commits from the upstream repo, resulting in different commit hashes. But we'd like to preserve the original upstream commits, including in the 'master' branch where we have the 'debian' packaging directory. So, you'd want to add to your local clone of the boxquote-el repo a new remote pointing to the upstream repo residing on GitHub, fetch the remote, pull from its 'main' branch into our 'upstream', then merge the 'v2.3' tag (now the tip of 'upstream') into our 'master' branch: cd boxquote-el git checkout upstream git remote add upstreamvcs https://github.com/davep/boxquote.el.git git fetch upstreamvcs git pull upstreamvcs main git checkout master git merge v2.3 # followed by the rest of your changes (to the debian/ dir) You may be able to use tooling to automate this (e.g. using 'gbp' from the 'git-buildpackage' package), or do it manually as shown above. It's a bit inconvenient since you're not [yet] a member of the Emacsen team or the repository itself, so you won't be able to do this in the emacsen-team/boxquote-el repo itself just yet. Please do this in your own fork - push your updated 'master' and 'upstream' branches and the new 'v2.3' tag - and let me know. I'll then pull your changes from your fork into emacsen-team/boxquote-el. Lastly, once ready, would you like to try uploading your changes to mentors.debian.net and open an RFS (Request for Sponsorship) bug for this? It might be a useful exercise for your future contributions as well. :-) (ref: https://mentors.debian.net/sponsors/rfs-howto/) Please let me know if anything's unclear or if you have any questions or comments. Thanks, -a
