Hi, Scott Kitterman: > Whatever is "standardized" it really, really ought to produce a useful source > package as that's the preferred form of modification in the project. > I do wonder, though, how many DDs would rather switch to a preferred form of "the debian branch of a git repo, based on the upstream VCS, with all changes as git commits". No debian/patches. Source format: a tarball with the FOO.git directory (not compressed, as "git repack" already does that).
Of course, we'd have to deal with non-free or otherwise unwanted files in upstream archives. Presumably, "git clone --shallow" could be extended to constrain itself to the dfsg and debian branches. -- -- Matthias Urlichs -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
